Lyrics

Many rivers to cross But I can't seem to find my way over Wandering I am lost as I travel along The white cliffs of Dover Many rivers to cross and it's only my will That 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 and she didn't say why Well, I guess, I've got to try (I've got) Many rivers to cross, but just where to begin (Many rivers to cross) I'm playing for time (I've got) There'll be times when I'll find myself (Many rivers to cross) Thinking of committing some dreadful crime (I've got) I've got many rivers to cross (Many rivers to cross) But I can't seem to find my way over (I've got) Wandering, I am lost as I travel along (Many rivers to cross) The white cliffs of Dover (I've got) Many rivers to cross and it's only my will (Many rivers to cross) That keeps me alive (I've got) I've been licked, washed up for years (Many rivers to cross) 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 and she didn't say why Well, I guess, I've got to try (I've got) Many rivers to cross (Many rivers to cross) But I can't seem to find my way over (I've got) Wandering I am lost as I travel along (Many rivers to cross) The white cliffs of Dover (I've got) 'Cause I've got many, many rivers to cross (I've got) Wandering I am lost (Many rivers to cross) (I've got many rivers to cross) many rivers to cross (I've got, many rivers to cross) (I've got, many rivers to cross) Many, many, many, many (I've got many rivers to cross)
