It's coming on ChristmasThey're cutting down treesThey're putting up reindeerAnd singing songs of joy and peaceOh, I wish I had a riverI could skate away onBut it don't snow hereIt stays pretty greenI'm going to make a lot of moneyThen I'm going to quit this crazy sceneI wish I had a riverI could skate away onI wish I had a river so longI would teach my feet to flyOh, I wish I had a riverI could skate away onI made my baby cry
He tried hard to help meYou know, he put me at easeAnd he loved me so naughtyMade me weak in the kneesOh, I wish I had a riverI could skate away onI'm so hard to handleI'm selfish and I'm sadNow I've gone and lost the best babyThat I ever hadOh, I wish I had a riverI could skate away onI wish I had a river so longI would teach my feet to flyOh, I wish I had a riverI could skate away onI made my baby say goodbye
It's coming on ChristmasThey're cutting down treesThey're putting up reindeerSinging songs of joy and peaceI wish I had a riverI could skate away on

I came upon a child of GodHe was walking along the roadAnd I asked him, where are you goingAnd this he told meI'm going on down to Yasgur's farmI'm going to join in a rock 'n' roll bandI'm going to camp out on the landI'm going to try an' get my soul freeWe are stardustWe are goldenAnd we've got to get ourselvesBack to the garden
Then can I walk beside youI have come here to lose the smogAnd I feel to be a cog in something turningWell maybe it is just the time of yearOr maybe it's the time of manI don't know who l amBut you know life is for learningWe are stardustWe are goldenAnd we've got to get ourselvesBack to the garden
By the time we got to WoodstockWe were half a million strongAnd everywhere there was song and celebrationAnd I dreamed I saw the bombersRiding shotgun in the skyAnd they were turning into butterfliesAbove our nationWe are stardustBillion year old carbonWe are goldenCaught in the devil's bargainAnd we've got to get ourselvesBack to the garden
