River

It's coming on ChristmasThey're cutting down treesThey're putting up reindeerAnd singing songs of joy and peaceOh I wish I had a river I could skate away onBut it don't snow hereIt stays pretty greenI'm going to make a lot of moneyThen I'm going to quit this crazy sceneOh I wish I had a riverI could skate away onOh I wish I had a river so longI would teach my feet to flyOh I wish I had a riverI made my baby cry.He tried hard to help meHe put me at easeLord, he loved me so naughtyMade me weak in the kneesI wish I had a river I could skate away onI'm so hard to handleI'm selfish and I'm sadNow I've gone and lost the best baby
