Many Rivers To Cross

Many Rivers To Cross - Jimmy Cliff

Many rivers to 'cross

But I can't seem to find my way over

Wandering I am lost as I travel along

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

What a 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 have to try

Many rivers to 'cross

Many rivers to 'cross but just where to begin

I'm playing for time

There'll be times I find myself

Many rivers to 'cross thinking

Of committing some dreadful crime

Yes

I've got many rivers to 'cross

Rivers to 'cross

But I can't seem to find my way over

Over

Wandering I am lost

Many rivers to 'cross as I travel along
