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
Yes, I've got many rivers to cross And it's only my will that keeps me alive 'Cause 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 'Cause my man left me and he didn't say why So I guess I'll have to cry
I've got many rivers to cross But just where to begin, I'm playing for time 'Cause there've been times I find myself Thinking of committing, a dreadful crime
And this loneliness won't leave me alone It's such a drag to be on your own My man left me and he didn't say why So I guess I'll have to cry
I've got many rivers to cross But just where to begin', I'm playing for time But I've been licked and washed up for years And I merely survive because of my pride Many rivers to, oh, cross
