River

[Verse 1]

It's coming on Christmas, we're cutting down trees

Putting up reindeer, singing songs of joy and peace

I wish I had a river I could skate away on

[Verse 2]

But it don't snow here and it stays pretty green

Gotta make a lot of money and split this crazy scene

I wish I had a river I could skate away on

[Chorus]

I wish I had a river so long

I could teach my feet to fly away

I wish I had a river I could skate away on

[Verse 3]

He tried hard to help me, tried to put me at ease

He loved me so naughty, made me weak in my knees

I wish I had a river I could skate away on

[Verse 4]

But I'm so hard to handle, I'm selfish and I'm sad

And I think I've gone and lost the best baby that I еver had

And I wish I had a river I could skate away on

[Chorus]

Oh, I wish I had a rivеr so long

I could teach my feet to fly away

I wish I had a river I could skate away on

[Outro]

I made my baby cry

I made my baby say goodbye

And I wish I had a river I could skate away on

Skate away on
