River

[Verse 1] It's coming on Christmas And they're cutting down trees I'm putting up reindeer And singing songs of joy and peace Oh, I wish I had a river I could skate away on [Verse 2] But it don't snow here 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 [Chorus] I wish I had a river so long I would teach my feet how to fly Oh, I wish I had a river I could skate away on [Verse 3] I'm so hard to handle I'm selfish and I'm sad Now I've gone and lost the best, baby That I've ever had I wish I had a river I could skate away on [Chorus] I wish I had a river so long I would teach my feet how to fly I wish I had a river I could skate away on I made my baby say goodbye [Verse 4] It's coming on Christmas They're cutting down trees And putting up reindeer And singing songs of joy and peace I wish I had a river I could skate away on
