Many rivers to cross
But I can't seem to find my way over
Wandering I'm 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 ripped, 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 women left me but she wouldn't say why
Guess I'll just break right down and cry
[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricsfreak.com/j/joe+cocker/many+rivers+to+cross_20260929.html ]
Many rivers to cross
But just where to begin
I'm playing for time
There've been times I find myself
Thinking of committing some terrible crime

Still this loneliness won't leave me alone
It's such a drag to be on your own
My girl left me but she wouldn't say why
Guess I'll just break right down and cry

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 ripped, washed up for years
And I merely survive because of my pride
