Jimi Hendrix - All Along the Watchtower (Alternate Take) lyrics

"There must be some kind of way out of here" Said a joker to the thief "There is too much confusion, I can't get no relief Businessmen, they drink my wine Plow men dig my earth None with a level on the vine Nobody out of it is worth, 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 you and I we've been through that And this is not our fate, so let us stop talk falsely now The hour is getting late" All along the watchtower, princess kept the view While all the women came and went, barefoot servants too Outside in the cold distance, a wildcat did growl Two riders were approaching and the wind began to howl
