Its comming on christmas, They are cutting down trees They are putting up reindeers Sining songs of joy and pease, Oh i wish i had a river I could skate away on But it dont snow here It stays pretty green Im gonna make alot of money Yhen im gonna puit this crazy scene 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 whis 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 o naughty Made me weak in the knees Oh i wish i had river I could skate away on Im so hard to handle Im selfish, and im sad Now ive gone n lost the best baby That i ever had Oh i wish i had a river I could skate away on I whis 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 babe say goodbye Its comming on christmas They are cutting down trees They are putting up reindeer And singing songs of joy and peace I wish i had a river I could skate away on
