River

River - Chris Garrick/John Etheridge/Liane Carroll

It's coming on Christmas

And they're cutting down trees

Putting up reindeer

And singing songs of joy and peace

Oh I wish I had a river

I could skate away on

It don't snow here

Stays pretty green

I'm like it make a lot of money

And 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 how to fly

Oh I wish I had a river

I could skate away on

I made my baby cry

Mading cry

You tried so hard to help me

You put me at ease

You loved me so naughty

It made me weak in the knees

Oh I wish I had a river

I could skate away on

I'm so hard to live with

I'm selfish and I'm sad

And lost the best baby

That I've 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 how to fly

Oh I wish I had a river

I could skate away on

I made my baby say goodbye

Goodbye

It's coming on Christmas

And they're cutting down trees

Putting up reindeer

And singing songs of joy and peace

I wish I had a river

I could skate away on
