Many Rivers 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 did`nt say why 

Well I guess, I gotta try. 

Many rivers to cross but where to begin, 

I`m playing for time 

There`ll be times when I find myself thinking 

Of committing some dreadful crime. 

 

I`ve got 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.
