[Verse 1]
It's coming on Christmas, we're cutting down trees
Putting up reindeer, singing songs of joy and peace
I wish I had a river I could skate away on
[Verse 2]
But it don't snow here and it stays pretty green
Gotta make a lot of money and split this crazy scene
I wish I had a river I could skate away on
[Chorus]
I wish I had a river so long
I could teach my feet to fly away
I wish I had a river I could skate away on
[Verse 3]
He tried hard to help me, tried to put me at ease
He loved me so naughty, made me weak in my knees
I wish I had a river I could skate away on
[Verse 4]
But I'm so hard to handle, I'm selfish and I'm sad
And I think I've gone and lost the best baby that I еver had
And I wish I had a river I could skate away on
[Chorus]
Oh, I wish I had a rivеr so long
I could teach my feet to fly away
I wish I had a river I could skate away on
[Outro]
I made my baby cry
I made my baby say goodbye
And I wish I had a river I could skate away on
Skate away on
