[00:01.68]There must be some kind of way out of here
[00:06.10]Said the joker to the thief, yeah
[00:10.30]There’s too much confusion
[00:14.39]Mmm I can’t get no relief
[00:17.62]
[00:17.99]Yeah
[00:19.19]I see jokers on my left, thieves upon my right
[00:21.35]You’d find me in the middle if I picked a different life
[00:23.44]Before my name started tripling in size
[00:25.83]But I’m still showing signs
[00:28.19]In the pitch black, it’s too cold
[00:30.20]I’m all alone take me back to the roads
[00:31.87]I had to rode to get here and I’ll hitch back
[00:33.65]Get a cab to my mother’s house
[00:35.38]See my old man and grab a six pack
[00:37.16]Tell my brother I love him
[00:38.66]And give him something that
[00:39.97]will see him through the hard times
[00:41.06]What’s a brother for?
[00:42.30]When I’m sick of this life I see
[00:43.45]It has to be my family who lift me off the floor
[00:46.02]Make sense of all the madness
[00:48.25]in a world full of money and …
[00:51.20]I was a failed man and worse I couldn’t give a fuck
[00:53.35]Save your wine for the entrepreneurs
[00:55.01]
[00:55.39]All along the watchtower
[00:58.89]Princes kept the view
[01:03.18]While all the women came and went
[01:07.98]Barefoot servants too, yeah
[01:12.86]Outside in the cold distance
[01:17.24]A wildcat did growl
[01:21.93]Two riders were approaching
[01:25.62]And the wind began to howl
[01:29.04]
[01:29.49]Cause your world is the same as mine
[01:30.65]Pour more blood in your cup
[01:33.16]Take a sip full of sin and let your taste buds savour the buzz
[01:35.46]The flavour of an ill-mannered nature
[01:37.61]That lingers on as animals in all of us
[01:39.75]Trying to fight for the right to live a life
[01:42.07]But some will never win though
[01:43.55]That’s why they live a lie
[01:44.55]I don’t think I’ll ever win
[01:45.66]All of this is anything
[01:46.68]When I die I hope a brother’s at my side
[01:48.85]There’s no trap door, or get out clause
[01:50.99]The world can be your oyster or a set of jail doors
[01:53.15]You’ve seen mine, I think it’s time I see yours
[01:55.45]I bet you that we’ve been scarred by the same swords
[01:57.91]Some are lost some are
[02:00.53]Apart from the fact I live my life
[02:01.13]in the light and now I’m trapped in it
[02:02.75]The way I feel within a few years time
[02:04.28]I might have a couple kids
[02:05.51]and just forget I ever wrote this
[02:06.97]
[02:07.20]All along the watchtower
[02:10.76]Princes kept the view
[02:15.05]While all the women came and went
[02:20.09]Barefoot servants too, yeah
[02:24.76]Outside in the cold distance
[02:28.53]A wildcat did growl
[02:33.18]Two riders were approaching
[02:37.77]And the wind began to howl
[02:40.88]
[02:43.55]Take away the treasure of a man
[02:44.81]Convinced that he holds heaven in his hands
[02:47.16]Even though I ain’t religious I’m a little superstitious
[02:50.04]Maybe there is a promised land
[02:52.08]But will I make it or not is a different matter
[02:53.84]I’ve been a joker, I’ve been a thief,
[02:55.40]I’ve been a rapper
[02:56.28]I’ve been the only enemy that I can never beat
[02:58.43]Give me a piece of mind upon a platinum platter
[03:00.55]
[03:00.91]All along the watchtower
[03:04.52]Princes kept the view
[03:09.20]While all the women came and went
[03:13.35]Barefoot servants too, yeah
[03:18.71]Outside in the cold distance
[03:22.74]A wildcat did growl
[03:27.23]Two riders were approaching
[03:31.03]And the wind began to howl
[03:34.68]
