Many Rivers To Cross

Many rivers to cross
But I can't seem to find my way over
Wanderin' I am lost as I travel along
The white cliffs of Dover

I got many rivers to cross
And it's only my will keeps me alive
I've been licked, washed up for years
And I merely survive because of my pride

And this loneliness won't leave me alone
It's such a drag to be on your own
My woman left me, she didn't say why
But I guess, I have to cry

I got many rivers to cross
But just where to begin
Yeah, I'm playin' for time
There'll be times I found myself
Thinkin' of committin' some, some dreadful crime

And this loneliness won't leave me alone
It's such a drag to be on your own
My woman left me, yeah, and she didn't, didn't say why
Well I guess, I'm gonna cry

I've got so many rivers to cross
But I can't seem to find my way over
Wanderin' I am lost as I travel along
The white cliffs of Dover

I got so many rivers to cross
And it's only my will, yeah, keeps me alive
I've been licked, washed up for years
And I merely survive because, because of my pride

There's just so many rivers to cross
But I can't seem to find, no, find my way over
Wanderin' I am lost as I travel along
The white cliffs of Dover

I got so many rivers to cross
