River Songtext
von Allison Crowe

As performed by Allison Crowe

It′s coming on Christmas
They're cutting down trees
They′re putting up reindeer
And singing songs of joy and peace

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 going to quit this crazy scene

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

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
That I ever had

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

I wish I had a river
I made my baby say goodbye

It′s coming on Christmas
They're cutting down trees
They′re putting up reindeer
And singing songs of joy and peace

I wish I had a river
I could skate away on
