River Lyrics by Grace Enger

2023

[Verse 1]
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

[Verse 2]
But it don't snow here
It stays pretty green
I'll make a lot of money
And I'm gonna quit this crazy scene
Oh, I wish I had a river I could skate away on

[Chorus]
Oh, I wish I had a river so long
I could teach my feet to fly
Oh, I wish I had a river I could skate away on
I made my baby cry

[Verse 3]
He tried hard to help me
You know, he put me at ease
And he loved me so naughty
And made me weak in my knees
Oh, I wish I had a river I could skate away on

[Verse 4]
I'm so hard to handle
And I'm selfish and I'm sad
Now I've gone and lost the best baby
I ever had
Oh, I wish I had a river I could skate away on

[Chorus]
Oh, I wish I had a river so long
I could teach my feet to fly
Oh, I wish I had a river I could skate away on
I made my baby say goodbye

[Verse 5]
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
