Bob Dylan - All Along The Watchtower

No video, just sound.

Lyrics:
"There must be some way out of here" said the joker to the thief
"There's too much confusion", I can't get no relief
Businessmen, they drink my wine, plowmen dig my earth
None of them along the line know what any of it is worth.

"No reason to get excited", the thief he kindly spoke
"There are many here among us who feel that life is but a joke
But you and I, we've been through that, and this is not our fate
So let us not talk falsely now, the hour is getting late".

All along the watchtower, princes kept the view
While all the women came and went, barefoot servants, too.

Outside in the distance a wildcat did growl
Two riders were approaching, the wind began to howl.

Why is it impossible to find bob dylans song on youtube?He is the greatest artist that ever lived..Old live performances are very rare.

You guys can criticize any version all you want but to judge would be a matter of opinion, they'er both amazing in they'er own way. bob's has more meaning and jimi's in my opinion had one of the best guitar solos in history.you can't make someone like something just by saying its good, you can suggest but even then almost every time someones going to disagree and some douchbag will start an argument, so there's no point even saying anything at all relay.

@Rskate18 That's because Jimi is the best guitarist to ever live. Bobby is the best lyricist. I personally prefer Jimi's versions, but that's just because it's more my taste in music.

I thought Jimi Hendrix wrote the song but I guess I was wrong.

I just think Dylan's version has just a heavier feel to it. I think it's kind of like the NIN song hurt, and the cover Johnny cash did.

like if the jimi hendrix version got you here

[TerrySleeper]

A great song and a great recording from a great album.

What more could you ask for?

A great cover version - step forward, Jimi . . . . .

[MrJJAKMinecraft]

@bushokjew00t As have 99% of all musicians ever. The great thing about copying is that each artist takes a bit from everyone they listen to and combines it in their own unique way
