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      And this loneliness won't leave me alone   It's such a drag to be on your own   My baby left me and he didn't say why   Well, I guess I'll have to try      Many rivers to cross but just where to begin   I'm playing for time   There have been times 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 white cliffs of Dover
