Lyrics

[00:20.01] it's coming on christmas
[00:22.38] they're cutting down trees
[00:24.81] they're putting up reindeer singing songs of joy and peace
[00:30.22] oh i wish i had a river
[00:33.05] i could skate away on
[00:39.83] but it don't snow here
[00:41.85] it stays pretty green
[00:43.07] i'm going to make a lot of money
[00:46.54] and then i'm going to quit this crazy scene
[00:49.47] oh i wish i had a river
[00:52.89] i could skate away on
[00:55.04] i wish i had a river so long
[01:04.91] i would teach my feet to fly high
[01:13.90] oh i wish i had a river
[01:17.01] i could skate away on
[01:23.64] i made my baby cry
[01:31.69]
[01:40.81] he tried hard to help me
[01:42.94] you know, he put me at ease
[01:45.18] and he loved me so naughty
[01:47.32] made me weak in the knees
[01:49.84] oh i wish i had a river
[01:53.73] i could skate away on
[02:00.69] but i'm so hard to handle
[02:02.48] i'm selfish and i'm sad
[02:04.68] now i've gone and lost the best baby that i've ever had
[02:10.03] oh i wish i had a river
[02:13.50] i could skate away on
[02:20.40] oh i wish i had a river so long
[02:25.40] i would teach my feet to fly high
[02:39.55] oh i wish i had a river
[02:42.25] that i could skate away on
[02:49.93] i made my baby say goodbye
[03:01.07]
[03:06.49] it's coming on christmas
[03:07.42] they're cutting down trees
[03:11.32] they're putting up reindeer singing songs of joy and peace
[03:14.75] oh i wish i had a river
[03:17.47] i could skate away on
[03:20.48]
[03:47.24]
