The Pilgrim, Chapter 33 (Live at the Philharmonic) - Kris Kristofferson
Written by：Kris Kristofferson

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' outta style

And he keeps right on a-changing for the better or the worse

Searching 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 coming down

He's a poet and he's a picker he's a prophet and he's a pusher

He's a pilgrim and a preacher and a problem when he's stoned
He's a walking contradiction partly truth and partly fiction

Takin' every wrong direction on his lonely way back home

He has tasted good and evil in your bedrooms and your bars
And he's traded in tomorrow for today

Runnin' from his devils lord and reachin' for the stars
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 coming down

He's a poet and he's a lier he's a prophet he's a dreamer

He's a pilgrim and a preacher and a problem when he's stoned

He's a walking contradiction partly truth and partly fiction

Takin' every wrong direction on his lonely way back home

There's a lotta wrong directions in this down hardship
