All Along The Watchtower Lyrics by Indigo Girls

All Along The Watchtower Lyrics

    There must be some kinda way way out of here
    Oh said the joker to the thief
    I want to tell you now
    You know there's just too much confusion
    And i can't no i can't get no relief
    Ah these businessmen they all they drink our wine
    And the plowman well he dig my earth
    And you know that ah none of them along the line
    Can show me what any of this is worth
    You know we wanted to see it now didn't we
    Didn't we

    There ain't no reason to get excited
    Ah the thief you know he kindly spoke
    Well now there are those among us right here right now
    Who still see life as some kind of a joke
    But you and i we have been through that
    I tell you that this this is not our fate no no no
    Now let us all not talk falsely now
    You know the hour well it's getting late

    I said all along the watchtower
    The princes they kept the view
    While the women the women
    They came and then they went
    And barefoot servants too
    That's me that's you
    But outside there's a cold distance
    Listen for the wildcats
    Here them growl
    Two riders were approaching
    As the wind began to howl
    I said now shelter me

    Oh there are those among us right here right now
    Who still see life as some kind of a joke
    All along the watchtower
    I said all along this watchtower
    Those of you who still have eyes to see
    Ears hear me
    You will be saved by grace in the end
    Saved by time if you don't understand
    That your hatred is rooted in your fear
    And your paranoia and insecurities
    Well they don't belong here
    You got to take someones hand
    You got to learn to make your stand
    And it's one two three four
    Look at the sky you can open the door
    And take my hand
    Take my hand
    Take my hand
    Ah don't you want to touch
    Don't you want to feel
    Don't you know that this is real
    I said shelter me
    Shelter me
    Shelter me
    Shelter me
    And save yourself
    Save yourself
    Save your
    Save your
    Save your
    Save your
    Save your
    Save your
    Save your
    Save your
    Save your
    Save your
    Save
    And you
    You
    And you are a part of the world
    You you are a part of the world
    You gotta learn to touch to feel
    And know that you are real
    I said learn learn
    You are a part of the world
