|
Rain like static falling in my eyes, |
|
Rain like static on the road, |
|
Rain on the loners and the regular thieves, |
|
Everybody else has gone home. |
|
If I could stay in your hotel bed, |
|
And sleep all day -- |
|
I made my mind up a long time ago, |
|
Got to keep on weaving my way. |
|
Like a late night pilgrim |
|
Looking for redemption in the underground. |
|
Lord, won't you help a late night pilgrim |
|
When the morning comes around. |
|
You'll get dirtier before you get clean, |
|
That's how a dream will go. |
|
And when it don't light like gasoline, baby |
|
You're on your own. |
|
Just a late night pilgrim |
|
Looking for redemption in the underground. |
|
Lord, won't you help a late night pilgrim |
|
When the morning comes around. |
|
Sometimes, I am the fool who's dealing cards |
|
To a ghost who's running late. |
|
Sometimes, the prophets they are just like me, |
|
Can't do nothing but sit up and wait |
|
With all the late night pilgrims |
|
Looking for redemption in the underground. |
|
Lord, won't you help the late night pilgrim |
|
When the morning comes around. |
|
Lord, won't you help this late night pilgrim |
|
When the morning comes around. |
