Lyrics

It's coming 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
But it don't snow here
Stays pretty green
I'm gonna make a lot of money
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
I would 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
He put me at ease
He loved me so naughty
Made me weak in the knees
Oh I wish I had a river I could skate away on
I'm so hard to handle
I'm selfish and I'm sad
Now I've gone and lost the best baby
That I've ever had
Oh, 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
Say goodbye
It's coming 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
