Lyrics
0:09It's coming on Christmas
0:12They're cutting down trees
0:14They're putting up reindeer
0:16And singing songs of joy and peace
0:19Oh I wish I had a river I could skate away on
0:28But it don't snow here
0:30It stays pretty green
0:33I'm going to make a lot of money
0:35Then I'm going to quit this crazy scene
0:38Oh I wish I had a river I could skate away on
0:47I wish I had a river so long
0:51I would teach my feet to fly
1:01I wish I had a river I could skate away on
1:10I made my baby cry
1:27He tried hard to help me
1:29You know he put me at ease
1:32And he loved me so naughty
1:34Made me weak in the knees
1:36Oh I wish I had a river I could skate away on
1:46I'm so hard to handle
1:48I'm selfish and I'm sad
1:50Now I've gone and lost the best baby
1:53That I ever had
1:55I wish I had a river I could skate away on
2:05Oh I wish I had a river so long
2:09I would teach my feet to fly
2:24I wish I had a river I could skate away on
2:33I made my baby say goodbye
3:03It's coming on Christmas
3:06They're cutting down trees
3:08They're putting up reindeer
3:10And singing songs of joy and peace
3:14Oh I wish I had a river I could skate away on
3:26I could skate away on
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 going to make a lot of money Then I'm going to 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 to fly I wish I had a river I could skate away on I made my baby cry He tried hard to help me You know he put me at ease And he loved me so naughty Made me weak in the knees Oh I wish I had a river I could skate away on 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 I wish I had a river I could skate away on Oh I wish I had a river so long I would teach my feet to fly I wish I had a river 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 And singing songs of joy and peace Oh I wish I had a river I could skate away on I could skate away on
