All Along the Watchtower (Alternate Mix) - The Jimi Hendrix Experience

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
