River

(Album: Only Santa Knows - 2020)

It's coming on Christmas, they're cutting down trees
They're putting up reindeers, singing 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
I'm going to make a lot of money, then I'm gonna quit this crazy scene
Oh, I wish I had a river I could skate away on

Oh, I wish I had a river so long
That it would teach my feet to fly
Oh, I wish I had a river I could skate away on
I made my baby cry

He tried hard to help me, you know he put me at ease
And he loved me so naughty, made me weak in the knees
Oh, I wish I had a river I could skate away on

I'm so hard to handle, I'm selfish and I'm sad
Now I've gone and lost the best baby I've ever had
Oh, I wish I had a river I could skate away on

Oh, I wish I had a river so long
That it would teach my feet to fly
Oh, I wish I had a river I could skate away on
I made my baby cry

It's coming on Christmas, they're cutting down trees
They're putting up reindeers, singing songs of joy and peace
I wish I had a river I could skate away on

Oh, I wish I had a river so long
That it would teach my feet to fly
Oh, I wish I had a river
