I am unaware of when this was first played

"No reason to get excited

The thief he kindly spoke

There are many among us

Who feel that life is but a joke"

Original Lyrics Written By Bob Dylan

 

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

 

Business men they

Drink my wine

There 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 are many among us

Who feel that life is but a joke

 

But you and I we've been through all that, yes we have

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 the view

While all the women all the women all the women came and went

Barefoot servants too

Outside in the cold distance

A wild cat did growl, la la la

Two riders, two riders approaching

The wind began to howl

 

The thief he take

My money take

The thief he take

My money take

 

Am I insane

Auf Wiedersehen

Am I insane

The thief is safe

 

No reason to get excited
