all along the watchtower

i don’t know why every time there’s an interesting gathering of sorts takes place in the city-like the last Nov 10 CLEAN rally-i’m away at another place.

Likewise i’ll be away tomorrow. Taking a break. After excessive barrage by political reality shows lately.

While i’m away this song is dedicated to y’all. Originally by Dylan, but i prefer Hendrix’s version

All Along The Watchtower

There must be some kind of 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
Ploughmen 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 think that life is but a joke
But you and I, we’ve been through that
And this is not our fate
So let us stop talking falsely now
The hour’s getting late

All along the watchtower
Princes kept the view
While all the women came and went
Barefoot servants too

Outside in the cold distance
A wild cat did growl
Two riders were approaching
And the wind begin to howl
