Many Rivers To Cross
Annie Lennox on U.S. Singles Chart After 13 Years
Annie Lennox's performance on last week's "Idol Gives Back" special has propelled the former Eurythmics singer onto the Billboard Hot 100 singles chart for the first time in almost 13 years.
Lennox entered the chart at No. 80 on Thursday with her version of reggae icon Jimmy Cliff's 1969 song "Many Rivers to Cross."
Many Rivers To Cross lyrics
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
Many Rivers to Cross lyrics
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
