"All Along The Watchtower" by The Dave Matthews Band



There must be some kind of way out of here
Said the joker to the thief
Too much confusion
I can't get no relief

Business men they
Drink my wine
Oh, and the plowmen dig my EARTH
None of them along the line
Know what any of it's worth

No reason to get excited
The thief he kindly spoke
There aren't many here among us
That feel that life is but a joke (ha, ha, ha...)

But you and I we've been through that, oh
And this is not our fate
So let us not talk falsely now
The hour is getting late

And All Along the Watchtower
Princes kept their view
While all the women, all the women, all the women, came and they went
Barefoot servants, too
Outside in the cold distance
A wild cat did growl, la la la
Two riders were approaching
The wind began to howl
Yeah...

All Along the Watchtower
The princes kept their view, oh
While all the women came and they went
Barefoot servants, too
Outside in the cold distance
A wild cat did growl, la la la
Two riders were approaching
The wind begins to... howl.

The money safe
The thief he take
The money safe
The thief he take

NO REASON TO GET EXCITED!

Black Cat



Bad luck seems to follow you wherever you go,
It's like the,
Earth cracks under you,
As your tears begin to flow,


Tell them you don't want no more,
Wanna flick your tail and go,
Sick of being looked upon,
But they all want a show.

Silly things are so divine,

Oh dear black cat of mine,

Take my hand and cross this line,

Oh sweet black cat of mine.


Think of all that's wrong,

Then think of all that's right,

Fill it up with magic,

And dim candle-lights,

So tell them you don't want no more,

That you're sick of feeling cold,
You sleep alone in the alley,
But they all want a show.

You've never felt so fine,
Oh dear black cat of mine,

Come on here and sip this wine,

You'll forget all in time.

I'll fix your heart if you'll fix mine,

Play with Voodoo Dolls and vital signs,

We'll soar the stars on a broom,

And caterwaul to the moon,


So tell them that you'll take no more,

Just take your things and go,
Stretch your paws and take control,
And they can forget their show.


Simple things trouble your mind,

Oh dear black cat of mine,
Come on here and clear your mind,

Oh sweet black cat of mine,
Oh dear black cat of mine.
