[00:10.62]It's coming on Christmas
[00:13.01]They're cutting down trees
[00:15.83]Then putting our pray
[00:17.61]We're singing songs of joy and peace
[00:20.51]Oh I wish I had a river
[00:24.46]I could skate away home
[00:31.35]But lived on slowly
[00:33.84]It stays pretty green
[00:36.47]But I make a lot of money
[00:38.95]And now I quit this crazy scene
[00:41.69]Oh I wish I had a river
[00:45.13]I could skate away home
[00:52.17]I wish I had a river so long
[00:56.79]I could teach my feet to float
[01:07.57]I wish I had a river
[01:11.27]I could skate away home
[01:17.86]I made my baby cry
[01:36.31]He tried hard to help me
[01:38.74]He put me at ease
[01:41.37]He left me so lonely
[01:43.54]Made me weak in the knees
[01:46.24]Oh I wish I had a river
[01:50.09]I could skate away home
[01:56.98]And I'm so hard to handle
[01:59.47]I'm selfish and sad
[02:02.15]I lost the best baby that I ever had
[02:07.31]Oh I wish I had a river
[02:10.86]I could skate away home
[02:17.85]I wish I had a river so long
[02:22.36]I could teach my feet to float
[02:33.35]I wish I had a river
[02:37.15]I could skate away home
[02:43.72]I made my baby say goodbye
[02:54.16]I made my baby say goodbye
