lirik lagu miriam makeba – can’t cross over
the river come down
the river come down
river come down
i can’t cross over
why-o, why-o, why-o
i can’t cross over
i wanted to go down
to the other sideof town
there was water all around
and i couldn’t cross over
why-o, why-o, why-o
i can’t cross over
well a gal she come by
and i give she the eye
so she started to sigh
and i couldn’t cross over
why-o, why-o, why-o
i can’t cross over
the river come down
the river come down
river come down
and i couldn’t cross over
why-o, why-o, why-o
i can’t cross over
now bird he can fly
foggy jump high
fishes never die
and i couldn’t cross over
why-o, why-o, why-o
i can’t cross over
a well i stole me a kiss
i couldn’t resist
just think what i’d a miss
if i could have crossed over
why-o, why-o, why-o
i can’t cross over
the river come down
the river come down
river come down
and i couldn’t cross over
why-o, why-o, why-o
i can’t cross over
i had a curiosity
now i got a family
bouncing baby on my knee
‘cause i couldn’t cross over
why-o, why-o, why-o
i can’t cross over
so when you see your neighbor daughter
better run for the water
you’ll do things you hadn’t ought to
if you can’t cross over
why-o, why-o, why-o
i can’t cross over
the river come down
the river come down
river come down
and i couldn’t cross over
why-o, why-o, why-o
i can’t cross over
