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 that 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 that 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 that I could skate away on |
|
I made my baby cry |
|
She tried hard to help me, you know, she put me at ease |
|
And she loved me so naughty, she made me weak in the knees |
|
Oh, I wish I had a river that 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 that 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 that I could skate away on |
|
Yes, away on... |
