Bob Dylan — All Along the Watchtower

Let me ask you one question

Is your money that good?

Will it buy you forgiveness?

Do you think that it could?

I think you will find

When your death takes its toll

All the money you made

Will never buy back your soul.

Momma, put my guns in the ground,

I can't shoot them anymore,

That long black cloud is coming down,

Feel I'm knockin' on heaven's door

And your pleasure knows no limits,

Your voice is like a meadowlark,

But your heart is like an ocean,

Mysterious and dark.

Soft through the dark

The hoot of an owl in the sky

Sad though his song

No bluer was he than I.

The moon went down stars were gone

But the sun didn't rise with the dawn.

There wasn't a thing left to say

The night we called it a day.

Go lightly from the ledge, babe,

Go lightly on the ground.

I'm not the one you want, babe,

I will only let your down.

I'm not the one you want, babe,

I'm not the one you need.

You say you're lookin' for someone,

Who's never weak but always strong

To protect you an' defend you

Whether you are right or wrong

Someone to open each and every door,

But it ain't me, babe.

No, no, no, it ain't me, babe,

It ain't me you're lookin' for, babe.

You've thrown the worst fear

That can ever be hurled

Fear to bring children

Into the world

For threatening my baby

Unborn and unnamed

You ain't worth the blood

That runs in your veins.

Yes, she's gone like the rainbow that shined yesterday

But now she's home beside me and I'd like her here to stay

She's a lone forsaken beauty and it's don't trust anyone

I wish I was beside her but I'm not there, I'm gone

Couldn't help but make me feel ashamed to live in a land,

Where justice is a game.

When you got nothing, you got nothing to lose

You're invisible now, you got no secrets to conceal.

How does it feel

To be on your own

With no direction home

Like a complete unknown

Like a rolling stone?
