Lyrics

[Verse 1]
It's comin' on Christmas
They're cutting down trees
Putting up reindeer
Singing songs of joy and peace
Oh, I wish I had a river
I could skate away on
[Verse 2]
But it don't snow here
It stays pretty green
Gonna make a lot of money
Then I'm gonna quit this crazy scene
Oh, I wish I had a river
I could skate away on
[Verse 3]
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 cry
[Verse 4]
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
[Verse 5]
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
[Verse 6]
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
[Verse 7]
It's comin' on Christmas
They're cutting down trees
Putting up reindeer
And singing songs of joy and peace
Oh, I wish I had a river
I could skate away on
