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 my own My woman left me and she didn't say why Well I guess, I have to try Many rivers to cross But where to begin, I'm playing for time There are times I find myself Thinking of committing some dreadful crime 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 alivie And this loneliness won't leave me alone It's such a drag to be on my own My woman left me and she didn't say why Well I guess, I got to try I've got many rivers to cross But I can't seem to find my way over.
