Animals, The - Many Rivers To Cross Lyrics
Many rivers to cross
But I can't seem to find
My way over
Wandering I am lost
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 man he left me but he wouldn't say why
Well I guess, I have to try
Many rivers to cross
But just where to begin
I'm playing for time
There'll be times I find myself
Thinking of committing
Some dreadful crime.
And this loneliness won't leave me alone
It's such a drag to be on your own
My man he left me but he wouldn't say why
Well I guess, I have to try, yeah yeah
Rivers, rivers to cross
Yeah yeah
Rivers to cross

Eric Burdon, where are you now?

A far Mind reflection.
best version ever...
Best song ever for going 4 wheel driving...
as well as getting over other relationship shit. So appropriate...BITCH! (I have undiagnosed Tourette syndrome it appears) sorry. bitch!, fuck you!, sorry, cun face!, , sorry, arsehole slut hoe!, sorry, Fuck off!, some body stop me FUCK U CRAP HEAD ....
Вот это Классс !
The best band of British Invasion next to The Beatles in my opinion...
Why the fuck isn't this song famous, why aren't bands like The Animals and The Kinks famous... but I'll stop being a cliché comment now and enjoy the song.
Megan Just get a room in Newcastle for god sake.
iphoneで聴いてるのだけど、君たちが歌い演奏している時間が届いたように思い感じた。
きっと、音楽は時空を翔ぶのだろう。
深感動、深感嘆、深深と感謝。
Most of these fanboy comments are over the top, yeah it’s a good cover but come on it ain’t all that .
Dick Johnson are u kidding me?
Yes, he is.
If he's not then he's really a Dick.
Beautiful man, beautiful song!!! ERIC my favorit singer, ever!!!!
Tengo el vinyl desde 1978,lo oí completo cientos de veces (pobre de mi madre) en mi consola "universal".todo el disco no tiene desperdicio pero esta portentosa canción siempre (aún hoy) me sacó las lagrimas....maravillosa obra!
Brividi !!! ♥✌🎶 Sublime Eric Burdon & The Animals ! La voce di caldo fuoco, colpisce sempre .
Beautiful version sung by a lot of great singers
Sheri Peters for me this is the best version ever
Lovely! i have never heard this version before, but i'm not disappointed.
Lenny kravitz come a close second to Jimmy Cliffs original and whoever else sings it makes it their own....and they're all brilliant at it.
nobody comes close to Linda Ronstadt singing his song......nobody
c'mon listen to lorraine Ellison's version and chill out
@vinobody I like Eric Burdon. Have you all heard his version?
every thing that the the animals touch, it turns in gold
Beautiful!!!!
Beautiful!!!!!!! Beatiful!!!!!! Beautiful!!!!!
Life can be really good, can't it?
Loven it of course!
best voice
Great version, but Harry Nilsson nails it
Bardon od koga "boli glava".Legenda.
Just ...........................a Beautiful Song .................
Como alguem pode dar dado dislike a voz de Eric eh uma das mais lindas e sensuais que existem!
Love it. From the first notes I know Eric will do this song justice.
Doug QUIDAM true
jebemu mater opet samo ja ,divna pesma.
I ja sam tu :-) pozdrav iz Sombora
ćao @Kinder Kingdom
The keyboards of the white cliffs of Dover, playing over the many rivers that I have to cross. So, sad......
그립습니다...전영혁의 음악세계...그 시절이 지금보다 더 낫다는 증거가 없네요.당신이 없으니...
그렇습니다...더이상 '음악'은 없고..그냥 '세계'만 떠다니고 있습니다. 전영혁...만세입니다...
Jebi ga opet ja i STARI BARDON.Puno reka treba preći..
+Rade Petrovic Kad samo pomislim da je pre par godina bio u Kombank Areni a ja nisam bio tamo, nisam bio tamo! :) nego znas kako: ko predje sve ove reke na kraju dobije nagradu.
Some of you are nuts!!! Jimmy Cliff, always the best...not even a question!!
So sad! Really moving. I put this in my Animals playlist. I put the Cliff original in my "Animals..covers" playlist. Thanks for uploading!
Best version I have ever heard of this song. When I bought the album I played it over and over.
I still have the album
The best in this world.
Bravo Burdon.
Eric Burdon is a god of song...just listen to this and tell me I am wrong ??
Rob Lawing --No Rob yuor not I'm just sorry I read this 2years later, but no one has ever come close to him and and probably won't in my life time & I plan on being around for a long time rock on Eric love ya
Rob Lawing
You are so right Sylvia
These guys are the best band ever. No one can beat The Animals. This version of this song is the best. Alan's amazing organ playing, Eric's beautiful singing voice, Hilton's awesome guitar playing, John's outstanding drumming, and Chas' wonderful bass guitar playing prove to others that they are the best band ever that I adore and love.
I have heard many versions of this song and I agree this is the definitive version.
@Megan S. Don;t necessarily agree to 'the best' as I have an appreciation of different interpretations. But do appreciate this rendition.
Cool,,,,, (Y)
What did Ray Charles say about Eric Burdon??????
There isn't any information...
It's Eric Burdon, what more is there to say!! Also the Animals:)<3
Still Amazing!
Wow, never even knew this existed. One of the best versions of this song.
eric is the man for the blues
I played the crap out of this record. Glad to find it here.
Beautiful
YES !!!!!! One of the GREATEST recordings EVER !!!!!! ... and it still brings me so much down onto my knees, while drowning into this song and words ... and I like it !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I NEVER find words for this wonderous song and singing by Eric !!!!!! ... I just listen ... and fly
truly great,unbeatable music and lryics
Wow....This is so incredible. So powerful, gripping...
This is my mothers favourite song and has become one of my all-time-favourites too. Coming from a family of uneducated workers with all kind of problems, the lyrics of this song has always gripped me by the heart. I really have to thank my mother for where I am today and the fact that she put herself last and always all of her 8 kids first still humbles me to this date. I owe my work ethics, my moral compass and my sense of justice to her - amongst many other things - and for that I thank her!
The best voice of the sixties. ( and seventies, eighties...)
Antonio Carlos - Santos - Brazil
different, more gospel, i can't say is bad but i don't like this style, sorry
@redsfanstu disagree about jimmy and joe cocker is not near to this
my best versions jimmy's and this
Fantastico...A voz do Eric é perfeita!
Abraço a todos
Simply beautiful, as for the 2 dislikers, well words fail me.
What a great,strong,emmotional voice..
Anyone know where to find this album ? Amazon and Itunes don't seem to have it
Burdon has to be one of the most underrated singers of all time...what a fantastic voice
Oops.. Please forgive.. but do love. Three of his songs are at the beginning of my play list, so I do enjoy him about daily. :) Keyboard isn't working well just now, or I'd tell you a bird story. Please ask me if you're interested. Tied to his version of "Ring of Fire." I think I've spelled it wrong for a long long time.
This is interesting. It makes me think of Melanie Safka.. They both belt out any song how their mood brings it out. Like me. Only problem, nobody wants to listen to me! Sometimes I think I don't really like a song, then find I like it just because of the emotion coming from the gut! Like this. I love Eric Burden!!
One of the greatest recordings of all time; and of course- one of the greatest vocalists ever. thanx for the Post.
