Lou Rawls - Poor Pilgrim of Sorrow Lyrics

Lyrics Poor Pilgrim of Sorrow - Lou Rawls



I am a pilgrim, a pilgrim of sorrow
Tossed in this wide world
This wide world alone
(I ain't got no hope, I ain't got no hope, I ain't got no hope)
Ain't got no hope in
(I ain't got no hope in this world for tomorrow)
This world for tomorrow
('Cause Lord, I'm trying, I'm trying to make heaven)
Trying to make it
(I wanna make heaven my home)
Heaven my home
You know sometimes, I get a little troubled
I get a little tormented and worried, Lord Jesus
By all of my so-called friends, all of my so-called friends
Who just won't, who just won't leave me alone
But I'm gonna keep on tryin' and keep on prayin'
That one day it'll all be over
'Cause Lord, I'm trying to make it
I wanna make heaven my home
(Sometimes) Sometimes I'm tossed
(Sometimes I'm tossed and driven) And driven Lord
(And I just don't know, said I just don't know, well I don't know which way to roam)
Just don't know which way to roam (I'm going home)
(Which way to roam)
(You see, I am a poor) I am a pilgrim
(I'm a poor pilgrim of sorrow) A pilgrim of sorrow
(Lord, You know that I'm tossed, tossed in this wide world)
Tossed in this wide world
(In this wide world alone) This wide world alone
(I ain't got no hope, I ain't got no hope)
Ain't got no hope in
(I ain't got no hope in this world for tomorrow)
This world for tomorrow
('Cause Lord, I'm trying, I'm tryin' to make heaven)
Trying to make it
(I'm gonna make heaven my home)
Heaven my home
(Sometimes) Sometimes I'm tossed
(Sometimes I'm tossed and driven) And driven Lord
(And I just don't know, said I just don't know)
(Well, I don't know which way to roam)
Just don't know which way to roam (I'm going home)
(Which way to roam)
(I've heard of a city)
Ain't got no hope in
(I've heard of a city, a city called heaven)
This world for tomorrow
(Lord, I'm trying, I'm trying to make it)
Trying to make it
(Trying, said I'm trying to make it)
Trying to make it
(Lord, I'm trying to make it)
Trying to make it
(Said I wanna make heaven my home)
Heaven my home
