All Along The Watchtower Lyrics - Singles - Indigo Girls

"There must be some kinda way out of here" 

Oh, said the joker to the thief 

I want to tell you now 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 

Oh, and the 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 

Oh, there are those among us right here, right now 

Who still see life as some kind of a joke 

All along the watchtower, said, all along this watchtower 

Those of you who still have eyes to see, ears hear me 

Photos 

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 a 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, save, save 

Save, save, save 

Save, save, save 

Save, save 

And you, and you 

And you are a part of the world 

You, you, you are a part of the world 

You gotta learn to touch, to feel 

You know that you are real 

I said, learn learn 

You are a part of the world
