River

It's comin' on Christmas They're cuttin' down trees They're puttin' up reindeer Singin' 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 Gonna make lots of money Then 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 will teach my feet to fly Oh, I wish I had a river I could skate away on How I made my baby cry She tried hard to help me She put me at ease She loved me so naughty Made me weak in the knees Oh, I wish I had a river I could skate away on But 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 I could skate away on Oh, how I wish 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 baby say goodbye It's comin' on Christmas They're cuttin' down trees Puttin' up reindeer Singin' songs of joy and peace Oh, I wish I had a river I wish I had a river, yeah I wish I had a river I could skate away on (Dum, dum, dum) Merry, a merry, a merry Christmas (dum, dum, dum) Merry, a merry, a merry Christmas (dum, dum, dum) Merry, a merry, a merry Christmas (dum, dum, dum) And have yourself a happy new year (dum, dum, dum) Merry, a merry, a merry Christmas (dum, dum, dum) Merry, a merry, a merry Christmas (dum, dum, dum) Merry, a merry, a merry Christmas (dum, dum, dum) And have yourself a happy new year (dum, dum, dum) Merry, a merry, a merry Christmas (dum, dum, dum) Merry, a merry, a merry Christmas (dum, dum, dum) Merry, a merry, a merry Christmas (dum, dum, dum) And have yourself a happy new year
