River

It's coming on Christmas They're cutting down trees Putting up reindeer Singing songs of joy and peace I wish I had a river I could skate away on But it don't snow here It stays pretty green I'm going to make a lot of money I'm going to quit this crazy scene I wish I had a river I could skate away on 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 cry (cry) He tried hard to help me Know, he put me at ease He loved me so naughty Made me weak in the knees I wish I had a river I could skate away on But I'm so hard to handle I'm selfish and I'm sad Now I lost the best baby That I ever had I wish I had a river I could skate away on 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 coming on Christmas They're cutting down trees (cutting down trees) Putting up reindeer Singing songs of joy and peace I wish I had a river I could skate away on (Joy, mmm!)
