"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, they drink my wine
Plowmen dig my earth
None will level on the line
Nobody 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 not talk falsely now
The hour is getting late", hey

Hey

All along the watchtower 
Princes kept the view
While all the women came and went 
Barefoot servants too

Outside in the cold distance
wildcat did growl
Two riders were approaching
And the wind began to howl, hey

All along the watchtower
All along the watchtower
