Lyrics Pilgrim - The Wood Brothers

When I step off of that train
I better sit down and wait
Cause a soul can't travel that fast
The best part of me will surely be late
Cause a soul can't travel that fast

A soul's gotta walk
Like a pilgrim he stops
To smell every flower on the path

I better slow down
Cause a soul can't
Travel that fast

When I get off of the road
And I'm thinkin' I'm home
I try to remember to remember
When I'm holdin' my baby
But I'm leaving her cold
It's all cause a soul can't travel that fast

Well a soul takes it's time
Like a pilgrim he's tryin'
To find him some peace that's gonna last

I better slow down
Cause a soul can't
Travel that fast
Travel that fast

I better slow down
Cause a soul can't
Travel that fast
Travel that fast

If I'm runnin' or I'm flyin'
And I'm losin' my mind
Take my foot off of the gas
Let the other fools pass

A soul takes it slow
Like a pilgrim he knows
He's gonna get where he's goin'
If he just stays on the path

I better slow down
Cause a soul can't
Travel that fast
Travel that fast

I better slow down
Cause a soul can't
Travel that fast
Travel that fast
