river þarký sözü

written by joni mitchell

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 a lot of money
then i´m going to quit this crazy scene
oh 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 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.
