There must be some kind of way out of here
Said a joker to the thief
There's too much confusion
I can't get no relief
Businessmen, they, they drink my wine
Ploughmen dig my earth
None will level on the line
Nobody of it is worth
Hey, hey
No reason to get excited
The thief, he kindly spoke
There are many here among us
Who feel that life is but a joke, but, uh
But you and I, we've been through that
And this is not our fate
So let us not talk falsely now
The hour's getting late
Hey
Hey
All along the watchtower
Princes kept the view
While all the women came and went
Barefoot servants, too, but, uh
Outside in the cold distance
A wildcat did growl
Two riders were approachin'
And the wind began to howl
Hey
Oh
All along the watchtower
Hear you sing around the watch
Gotta beware, gotta beware, I will
Yeah
Ooh, baby
All along the watchtower
