Lyrics Kate Miller–Heidke – River

It’s coming on Christmas
They’re cutting down trees
They’re putting up reindeer
And singing songs of joy and peace

But it don’t snow here
It stays pretty green
I’m gonna make a lot a money
Then I’m gonna 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

He tried hard to help me
And put me at ease
He loved so naughty
Maybe we can learn these
I wish I had a river
I could skate away on

I’m so hard to handle
I’m selfish I’m sad
Now we gonna lost the best baby that I’ve ever had
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

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
