RIVER - Joni Mitchell / The Indigo Girls
(Pick out melody notes of Jingle Bells)
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
But it don't snow here, it stays pretty green
I'm going to make alot of money then I'm going to quit this crazy scene
Oh I wish I had a river I could skake 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 skake away on
I made my baby cry
He tried hard to help me, he put me at ease
Lord he loved me so naughty made me weak in the knees
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
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 made my baby say goodbye
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
