Lyrics MANY RIVERS TO CROSS Jimmy Cliff
Written by

(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
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
Many rivers to cross
But where to begin
I'm playing for time
There been 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
(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
Yes, I've got many, many rivers to cross, oh
Wandering I am lost, oh
Many rivers to cross, oh...
