v.1
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 herb
None of them along the line, know what any of it's worth

v.2
"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's getting late" hey!

Instr. Brk

v.3
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, and the wind began to howl
