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.
But it don't snow here;
It stays pretty green.
Gonna make a lot of money,
Then I'm gonna quit this crazy scene.
And 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.
Tried hard to help me,
And you put me at ease.
Loved me so naughty,
Made me weaking in the knees.
I wish I had a river,
I could skate away on.
I'm so hard to handle;
I'm selfish and I'm sad.
I've gone and lost the best baby,
I ever had.
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.
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.
I wish I had a river,
I could skate away on.
It's coming on christmas; 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. But it don't snow here; It stays pretty green. Gonna make a lot of money, Then I'm gonna quit this crazy scene. And 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. Tried hard to help me, And you put me at ease. Loved me so naughty, Made me weaking in the knees. I wish I had a river, I could skate away on. I'm so hard to handle; I'm selfish and I'm sad. I've gone and lost the best baby, I ever had. 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. 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. I wish I had a river, I could skate away on. Explain Request ×
