­WORLD WAR COVID

Poems, theirs and mine

"All Along the Watchtower" is a song by American singer-songwriter Bob Dylan from his eighth studio album, John Wesley Harding (1967). The song was written by Dylan and produced by Bob Johnston. [I prefer the Jimi Hendrix rendition: All Along the Watchtower, The Jimi Hendrix Experience, Producer Jimi Hendrix, Track 15 on Electric Ladyland - 50th Anniversary Deluxe Edition, Sep. 21, 1968 

All Along the Watchtower

"There must be some kind of way out of here"

Said the joker to the thief

"There's too much confusion

I can't get no relief

Businessmen, they drink my wine

Plowmen dig my earth

None will level on the line

Nobody offered his word," hey

 

[Guitar Solo]

 

[Verse 2]

"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 talking falsely now

The hour's getting late, hey

 

[Guitar Solo]

[Interlude]

Hey

 

[Verse 3]

All along the watchtower

Princes kept the view

While all the women came and went

Barefoot servants too, well, uh

Outside in the cold distance

A wildcat did growl

Two riders were approaching

And the wind begin to howl, hey

 

[Outro]

All along the watchtower

Got to be a way, got to be a way out of here

All along the watchtower
