River

It's comin' on Christmas, they're cuttin' down trees They're puttin' up reindeer and 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 going to make a lot of money, and then I'm going to 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 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 Now I've gone and 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 goodbye It's comin' on Christmas, they're cuttin' down trees They're puttin' up reindeer and singin' songs of joy and peace I wish I had a river I could skate away on
