מילים לשיר River – Joni Mitchell

It's coming on Christmas,
And they're cutting down trees.
Putting up reindeer
And singing songs of joy and peace,
Oh, I wish I had a river I could skate away on.
It don't snow here, I'm gonna make a lot of money
Stays pretty green.
And quit this crazy scene.
Oh, I wish I had a river I could skate away on.
I wish I had a river so long, I would teach my feet how to fly.
Oh, I wish I had a river I could skate away on.
I made my baby cry. You tried hard to help me,
You put me at ease.
You loved me so naughty,
It made me weak in the knees.
Oh I wish I had a river I could skate away on. I'm so hard to handle,
Now I've gone and lost the best baby
I'm selfish and I'm sad.
That I've ever had.
I wish I had a river so long,
Oh, I wish I had a river I could skate away on.
I would teach my feet how to fly. Oh, I wish I had a river I could skate away on. I made my baby say goodbye.
It's coming on Christmas
And they're cutting down trees.
And singing songs of joy and peace.
Putting up reindeer,
I wish I had a river I could skate away on.
