River

It's coming on christmas

They're cutting down trees

They're putting up reindeer

And singing 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 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 could teach my feet to fly

Oh i wish i had a river

I could skate away on

I made my baby cry...

You tried hard to help me

Always put me at ease

You loved me so naughty, baby

Made me weak in the knees

Oh i wish i had a river

I could skate away on

And i'm so hard to handle

I'm selfish and i'm sad

And i've gone and lost the best baby

That i have ever had

Oh i wish i had a river

I could skate away on

I wish i had a river so long

I could 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

Oh i wish i had a river

I could skate away on
