River
It's comin' on Christmas
They're cuttin' down trees
They're puttin' up reindeer
Singin' 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
Gonna make lots of money
Then I'm gonna 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
Oh, I wish I had a river
I could skate away on
Oh, I made my baby cry
She tried hard to help me
She put me at ease
She loved me so naughty
Made me weak in the knees
Oh, I wish I had a river
I could skate away on
But I'm so hard to handle
I'm sеlfish and I'm sad
And I've gone and lost
The bеst baby that I ever had
Oh, 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
Oh, I wish I had a river
I could skate away on
I made my baby say goodbye
It's comin' on Christmas
They're cuttin' down trees
Puttin' up reindeer
Singin' songs of joy and peace
Oh, I wish I had a river
I wish I had a river, yeah
I wish I had a river
I could skate away on
(Dum, dum, dum)
Merry, merry, merry Christmas (dum, dum, dum)
Merry, merry, merry Christmas (dum, dum, dum)
Merry, merry, merry Christmas (dum, dum, dum)
And have yourself a happy new year (dum, dum, dum)
Merry, merry, merry Christmas (dum, dum, dum)
Merry, merry, merry Christmas (dum, dum, dum)
Merry, merry, merry Christmas (dum, dum, dum)
And have yourself a happy new year (dum, dum, dum)
Merry, merry, merry Christmas (dum, dum, dum)
Merry, merry, merry Christmas (dum, dum, dum)
Merry, merry, merry Christmas (dum, dum, dum)
And have yourself a happy new year (dum, dum, dum)
They're cuttin' down trees
They're puttin' up reindeer
Singin' 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
Gonna make lots of money
Then I'm gonna 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
Oh, I wish I had a river

Oh, I made my baby cry
