River

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 gonna make a lot of money

I'm gonna quit this crazy scene



I wish I had a river

I could skate away on



Oh, 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'm dreaming of a white Christmas

Just like the ones I used to know

Where the treetops glisten and children listen

To hear the sleigh bells in the snow



I'm dreaming of a white Christmas

With every Christmas card I write

May your dreams be merry and bright

And may all your Christmases be white

And may all your Christmases be white



It's coming on Christmas

They're cutting down trees

They're putting up a reindeer

And 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

I would teach my feet to fly

Oh, I wish I had a river

I could skate away on
