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

You know, It stays pretty green

I'm going to make a lot of money

Then I'm going to quit this crazy scene

I wish I had a river

I could skate away on

I wish I had a river so long

I'd teach my feet to fly

Cause' I made my baby cry

I made her say goodbye

She tried hard to help me

You know, she put me at ease

And she loved me all 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've ever had

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

Cause' I made my baby cry

I made her say goodbye

I made her say goodbye
