Sara James - River

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

But it doesn't snow here
It stays pretty green
I'm gonna make a lot of money
And 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
Teach my feet to fly
Wish I had a river I could skate away on
I made my baby cry

He tried hard to help me
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

So hard to handle
I'm selfish, I'm sad
Now I've gone and lost the best baby that I ever had
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
Wish I had a river I could skate away on
I made my baby say goodbye
Goodbye
Goodbye

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