Lyrics

It's coming on Christmas
They're cutting down trees
They're putting up reindeers
Singing songs of joy and peace
I wish I had a river I could skate away on
But it don't snow here, it just stays pretty green
I'm gonna make a lot of money
Then I'm gonna 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
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
And 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
And now I've lost the best baby that I 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 bye
It's coming on Christmas, they're cutting down trees
They're putting up reindeers
Singing songs of joy and peace
I wish I had a river that I could skate away on
