Pilgrim Lyrics by Steve Earle

The Mountain

1999

(One, two, three, four...)

I am just a pilgrim on this road, boys
I am just a pilgrim on this road, boys
I am just a pilgrim on this road, boys
This ain't never been my home

Sometimes the road was rocky along the way, boys
Sometimes the road was rocky along the way, boys
Sometimes the road was rocky along the way, boys
But I was never travellin' alone

We'll meet again on some bright highway
Songs to sing and tales to tell
But I am just a pilgrim on this road, boys
Until I see you, fare thee well

Ain't no need to cry for me, boys
Ain't no need to cry for me, boys
Ain't no need to cry for me, boys
Somewhere down the road, you'll understand

'Cause I expect to touch His hand, boys
I expect to touch His hand, boys
I expect to touch His hand, boys
I'll put a word in for you, if I can

We'll meet again on some bright highway
With songs to sing and tales to tell
But I'm just a pilgrim on this road, boys
I'm just a pilgrim on this road, boys
I'm just a pilgrim on this road, boys
Until I see you, fare thee well

I'm just a pilgrim on this road, boys
I'm just a pilgrim on this road, boys
I'm just a pilgrim on this road, boys
Until I see you, fare thee well

I'm just a pilgrim on this road, boys
I'm just a pilgrim on this road, boys
I'm just a pilgrim on this road, boys
Until I see you, fare thee well
