Lyrics

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 don'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, 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
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
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 that 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 reindeer, singin' songs of joy and peace
Oh, I wish I had a river I could skate away on
