| [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 **** |
| [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] |
|
