Lyrics

[Verse 1]
It's coming on Christmas
They're cutting down trees
They're 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
You know it stays pretty green
I'm 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]
I wish I had a river so long
I would teach my feet to fly
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
He made me weak at the knees
Oh, I wish I had a river I could skate away on
[Verse 5]
I'm so hard to handle
You know I'm selfish and I'm sad
Now I've gone and lost the best baby 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
I wish I had a river I could skate away on
I made my baby say goodbye
[Verse 7]
It's coming on Christmas
They're cutting down trees
They're putting up reindeer
Singing songs of joy and peace
Oh, I wish I had a river I could skate away on
