Can't Cross Over-Miriam Makeba

Can't Cross Over - Miriam Makeba Written By：Irving Burgie The river come down The river come down River come down I can't cross over Whyo whyo whyo I can't cross over I wanted to go down To the other side of town There was water all around And I couldn't cross over Now bird he can fly Foggy jump high Fishes never die And I couldn't cross over Whyo whyo whyo I can't cross over The river come down The river come down River come down I can't cross over Whyo whyo whyo I can't cross over Come by And he gives me the eye So I started to cry 'Cause I couldn't cross over A well I stole a kiss I couldn't resist Just think what I'd a miss If I could have crossed over Whyo whyo whyo I can't cross over The river come down The river come down River come down And I couldn't cross over Whyo whyo whyo 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 Whyo whyo whyo I can't cross over So if you have a daughter Keep away from the water If she can't cross over Whyo whyo whyo I can't cross over The river come down The river come down River come down And I couldn't cross over Whyo whyo whyo I can't cross over
