River
(Joni Mitchell)
Oooo-Whoo
La La La La
Oooo-Whoo
La La La La
Coming on winter
They’re cutting down trees
They’re putting up reindeer
Singing songs of joy and peace
I wish I had a river
I could skate away on
Will it don’t snow here
Stays pretty green
Going to make a lot of money
Going to quit this crazy scene
I wish I had a river
I could skate away on
I wish I had a river so long
I could teach my feet to fly
Oooo, I wish I had a river
I could just skate away on
I made my baby cry
Well, he tried hard to help me
And he put me at ease
And he loved me so naughty
He made me weak in the knees
I wish I had a river
I could skate away on
So hard to handle
I’m selfish and I’m sad
And I’ve just lost the best baby
I ever had
Oh God, I wish I had a river, river, river
I could skate away on
I wish I had a river so long
I could, I could teach my feet to fly
Oh God, I wish I had a river
I could skate away on
My baby say goodbye
I’m so hard to handle
I’m selfish and I’m sad
And I’ve just lost the best baby
I ever had
I wish I had a river
I could skate away on
My baby say goodbye
