Artist/Band: Barry Manilow
Lyrics for Song: River
Lyrics for Album: The Classic Christmas Album [2006]



It's coming on Christmas

They're cutting down trees

They're putting up reindeer

And signing 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 going to 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

I wish I had a river

I could skate away on

I made my baby cry



Well she tried hard to help me

You know, 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 and 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

I wish I had a river

I could skate away on

I made my baby say goodbye



Well It's coming on Christmas

They're cutting down trees

They're putting up reindeer

Singing songs of joy and peace

God I wish I had a river

I could skate away on
