River

It's coming on Christmas

They're cutting down trees

They're putting up reindeer

And singing songs of joy and peace

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 a 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

Oh I wish I had a river

I could skate away on

I made my baby cry

He tried hard to help me

And put me at ease

He loved so naughty

Maybe we can learn these

I wish I had a river

I could skate away on

I'm so hard to handle

I'm selfish I'm sad

Now we gonna lost the best baby that I've ever had

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

It's coming on Christmas

They're cutting down trees

They're putting up reindeer

And singing songs of joy and peace

I wish I had a river

I could skate away on
