Lyrics of River

It's coming on christmas, they're cutting down trees
They're putting up reindeer, 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 going to make a lot of money
And then 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 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
And he loved me so naughty, made me weak in the knees
Oh, i wish i had a river i could skate away on

Well, 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

Oh, i wish i had a river so long
I would teach my feet to fly
Oh, i wish i had a river that 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, singing songs of joy and peace
Oh, i wish i had a river i could skate away on
