River

It's comin' on Christmas They're cuttin' down trees They're puttin' up reindeer Singin' songs of joy and peace Oh, I wish I had a river I could skate away on But it doesn't snow here It stays pretty green I'm gonna make a lot of money And then I'm gonna quit this crazy scene Oh, I wish I had a river I could skate away on I wish I had a river so long Teach my feet to fly Oh, I wish I had a river I could skate away on I made my baby cry He tried hard to help me You know, he put me at ease And he loved me so naughty Made me weak in the knees Oh, I wish I had a river I could skate away on Well I'm so hard to handle I'm selfish and I'm sad Now I've gone and lost the best baby That I ever had, oh, I wish I had a river I could skate away on Oh, I wish I had a river so long I would, teach my feet to fly Oh, I wish I had a river I could skate away on I made my baby say goodbye It's comin' on Christmas They're cuttin' down trees They're puttin' up reindeers And singin' songs of joy and peace Oh, I wish I had a river I could skate away on
