All Along the Watchtower Lyrics
- I'll come back, and when I do I'll get you and ....
- This is important
- Doctor I've got to see you
- Why of course
- Speak softly
- I knew you would come
- Take me away from here, I'm scared
There must be some kind of way outta here
Said the joker to the thief
There's too much confusion
I can't get no relief
Business men, they drink my wine
Plowman dig my earth
--------------------------------------------------
None were level on the mind???
Nobody up at his word ???
----------------------------------------------------
They don't know
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 stop talkin' falsely now
The hour's getting late, hey
- This is important
- Doctor I've got to see you
- Why of course
- Speak softly
- I knew you would come
- Take me away from here, I'm scared
There must be some kind of way outta here
Said the joker to the thief
There's too much confusion
I can't get no relief
Business men, they drink my wine
Plowman dig my earth
--------------------------------------------------
None were level on the mind???
Nobody up at his word ???
----------------------------------------------------
They don't know
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 stop talkin' falsely now
The hour's getting late, hey
- Quite different things, the certain knowledge of what is to be - - - and what is not to be
- So Washington DC is in the twilight zone
- Must be hemming? me in
- Well, at least we know where he is and what he's up to
- Alright, let's make it work this time
All along the watchtower
Princes 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
- Mount Olympus
- Mount Olympus
- Deep streamlined
- Are you real, I mean I'm not imagining you am I?
-- we're real enough
- You speak English, Earth People?
-- From the Federation
- So Washington DC is in the twilight zone
