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 |
|
It stays pretty green |
|
I'm gonna make a lot of money |
|
And 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 could teach my feet to fly |
|
|
|
Oh i wish i had a river |
|
I could skate away on |
|
|
|
I made my baby cry... |
|
|
|
You tried hard to help me |
|
Always put me at ease |
|
You loved me so naughty, baby |
|
Made me weak in the knees |
|
|
|
Oh i wish i had a river |
|
I could skate away on |
|
|
|
And i'm so hard to handle |
|
I'm selfish and i'm sad |
|
And i've gone and lost the best baby |
|
That i have ever had |
|
|
|
Oh i wish i had a river |
|
I could skate away on |
|
|
|
I wish i had a river so long |
|
I could teach my feet to fly |
|
|
|
Oh i wish i had a river |
|
I could skate away on |
