SAM ROBERTS lyrics : "the pilgrim"


I'm a pilgrim like you, I was only passin' through


You'll never know my name, you'll never walk in my shoes

I've been no use to my friends, I've been no use to myself


Now I'm lookin' for proof that I ain't someone else




I was too afraid to read the newspaper


Workin' in the ba!@&(t of a skyscraper


That's why I roll and you'll never know my name

Oh, no





I'm not here to feel the bones of some forgotten saint

I know who I am and I know who you ain't


Spent fifteen days in solitary confinement, diggin' a hole in the wall


There's no escape, they said you need realignment

Now you're prayin' for help but they don't hear you call





I was too afraid to read the newspaper

Workin' in the ba!@&(t of a skyscraper


That's why I roll and you'll never know my name


Oh, no




Destination, I don't care


I know I'll get there when I'm there

There's only one thing on my mind


I've got more troubles than a diamond's got shine




My shoes have kicked up dust from here to somewhere else


Is this wanderlust or runnin' from myself?


My neck was in the noose but now I've been cut loose

And put out to graze in delicate pastures


Now I'm waitin' for someone to put me to use




I hope it's clear as crystal, that the man with the pistol


Is callin' all the shots these days, now I'll be on my way, oh


The self fulfillin' prophets, they been linin' their pockets

And tellin' me that it's alright but I just don't buy it


Oh, no




Destination, I don't care

I know I'll get there when I'm there


There's only one thing on my mind

I've got more troubles than a diamond's got shine




Destination, I don't care

I know I'll get there when I'm there


There's only one thing on my mind

I've got more troubles than a diamond's got shine
