I'm a poor pilgrim of sorrow
Thrown into this wild world alone
No hope have I for tomorrow
I decided to make Heaven my home

Sometimes I'm thrown and driven
Sometimes I don't know where to run
I've heard of a city called Heaven
I've decided to try to make it my home

In a city called Heaven
I decided to make it mine
My mother's already in glory but
[ From: http://www.elyrics.net ]
My father's still walking in sin

My brothers and sisters walk about me
The truth is sinking in
I've been good, I've been wicked, boy
Teach me to forget all that I know

I've heard of a city called Heaven
And that's where the hell I'm gonna go
In a city called Heaven
I decided to make it mine
