River

[00:19.52] It's comin' on Christmas
[00:21.42] They're cuttin' down trees
[00:24.18] They're puttin' up reindeer
[00:25.98] Singin' songs of joy and peace
[00:28.70] Oh, I wish I had a river
[00:32.30] I could skate away on
[00:37.21]
[00:39.76] But it doesn't snow here
[00:41.53] It stays pretty green
[00:44.26] I'm gonna make a lot of money
[00:46.12] And then I'm gonna quit this crazy scene
[00:48.85] Oh, I wish I had a river
[00:53.45] I could skate away on
[00:58.98] I wish I had a river so long
[01:04.37] Teach my feet to fly
[01:12.66] Oh, I wish I had a river
[01:16.47] I could skate away on
[01:21.35]
[01:23.86] I made my baby cry
[01:29.02]
[01:40.22] He tried hard to help me
[01:43.01] You know, he put me at ease
[01:44.85] And he loved me so naughty
[01:47.64] Made me weak in the knees
[01:49.58] Oh, I wish I had a river
[01:53.25] I could skate away on
[01:59.69] Well I'm so hard to handle
[02:02.32] I'm selfish and I'm sad
[02:04.18] Now I've gone and lost the best baby
[02:06.93] That I ever had, oh,
[02:09.68] I wish I had a river
[02:12.75] I could skate away on
[02:18.73] Oh, I wish I had a river so long
[02:24.27] I would, teach my feet to fly
[02:35.68]
[02:38.07] Oh, I wish I had a river
[02:42.55] I could skate away on
[02:49.96] I made my baby say goodbye
[02:56.90]
[03:06.56] It's comin' on Christmas
[03:08.35] They're cuttin' down trees
[03:11.16] They're puttin' up reindeers
[03:12.92] And singin' songs of joy and peace
[03:15.79] Oh, I wish I had a river
[03:19.33] I could skate away on
[03:21.36]
