River

Travis

It's coming on Christmas 
They're cutting down trees 
They're putting up reindeer 
And singing songs of joy and peace 
Oh I wish I had a river 
I could skate away on 
N it don't snow here 
It stays pretty green 
I'm going to make a lot of money 
And 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 
Oh I wish I had a river 
I could skate away on 
I made my baby cry 
She tried hard to help me 
She put me at ease 
And she 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 I'm sad 
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 

Oh I wish I had a river 
I could skate away on 
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
