The Pilgrim Ch. 33
See him wasted on the sidewalk in his jacket and his jeans Wearin' yesterday's misfortunes like a smile Once he had a future full of money, love and dreams Which he spent like they was goin' out of style
And he keeps right on a-changin' for the better or the worse Searchin' for a shrine he's never found Never knowin' if believin' is a blessin' or a curse Or if the goin' up was worth the comin' down
He's a poet, oh, he's a picker, he's a prophet, he's a pusher He's a pilgrim and a preacher, and a problem when he's stoned He's a walkin' contradiction, partly truth, partly fiction Takin' ev'ry wrong direction on his lonely way back home
Well, he has tasted good and evil in your bedrooms and your bars Has traded in tomorrow for today Runnin' from his devils, Lord and reachin' for the stars Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com And losin' all he's loved along the way
But if this world keeps right on turnin' for the better or the worse And all he ever gets is older and around From the rockin' of the cradle to the rollin' of the hearse The goin' up was worth the comin' down
He's a poet, he's a picker, he's a prophet, he's a liar He's a pilgrim and a preacher, and a problem when he's stoned He's a walkin' contradiction, partly truth, partly fiction Takin' ev'ry wrong direction on his lonely way back home There's a lot of wrong directions on your lonesome way back home
From the rockin' of the cradle to the rollin' of the hearse The goin' up was worth the comin' down
