River Live by Tutu Puoane Lyrics

[Verse 1]
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
Then I'm gonna quit this crazy scene
I wish I had a river
I could skate away on

[Chorus]
I wish I had a river so long
I would teach my feet to fly
Wish I had a river
I could skate away on
I made my baby cry
[Verse 2]
He tried hard to help me
You know, he put me at ease
And he loved me so naughty
Made me weak in the knees, oh
I wish I had a river I could skate away on
But I'm so hard to handle
I'm sеlfish and I'm sad
Now I've gone and lost the bеst baby
That I ever had
I wish I had a river
I could skate away on

[Chorus]
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 say goodbye

[Verse 3]
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
