LYRICS:
Take me across the water 'cause I need some place to hide
I done the rancher's daughter and I sure did hurt his pride

Well there's a hundred miles of desert lies between his hide and mine
I don't need no food and no water, Lord, 'cause I'm running out of time

Fightin', killin', wine and women, gonna put me to my grave
Runnin', hidin', losin', cryin', nothing left to save
But my life

Stood on a ridge and shunned religion thinking the world was mine
I made my break and a big mistake stealin' when I should've been buyin'

All that fightin', killin', wine and those women, gonna put me to an early grave
Runnin', hidin', losin', cryin', nothing left to save
But my life, life, life, life, life, life, life, life, life

So I stood on a ridge and shunned religion thinking the world was mine
I made my break and a big mistake stealin' when I should've been buyin'
I was stealin' when I should've been buyin'
I was stealin' when I should've been buyin' yeah
Stealin' when I should've been buyin'

Well over 60 myself. Still likely to sing this song loudly and badly in my car 🚗!

I ain't sorry 🙃😉

[markmcentire]

They don't make rock and roll like this anymore the 70 s kicked ass a lot of good music

[kingkat]

Terribly underrated group, this is actually one of my favorite classic rock tracks.

[ebayerr]

It's hard to appreciate now how good this sounded back in '73 when it first came out.
This song and Aerosmith "Dream On", Deep Purple - "Smoke on the Water", Golden Earring "Radar Love"
Pink Floyds "Dark side of the Moon" album and ZZ Top's "Tres Hombres" album.
Man. What a time to be a teenager.

[ThomasJacksonNC]

I was raised by a Mom and Dad and all the hippie's that were with them. I heard Uriah Heep my whole life, voice from my childhood
Much love ❤️ be at peace with your self

[hecimbecir]

Holy trinity of hard rock:Deep Purple-Uriah Heep-Black Sabbath.❤❤❤

[kenadams]

I was Lucky Enough to see them Up Close when I was a Teenager, Now I am still listening at 66 yrs old, And Still Doin the Rancher's Daughter.

[rodkemp]

Wow this takes me back to my teenage days on my Eight Track Craig Power play in my 1968 Road Runner⭐️👍❤️! Made my day🤣!

A great Ken Hensley classic. The Uriah Heep sound is iconic, this was their best line up: David Byron, a magnificent lead vocalist, the talented Gary Thain on bass guitar, as mentioned, the multi talented Ken Hensley, the driving lead guitar of Mick Box, and the vastly underrated drumming of Lee Kerslake.
The Seventies!
What a magical decade of truly awesome rock bands, Led Zeppelin, Uriah Heep, Deep Purple,
Pink Floyd to name a few!

[DavidGarrick]

There were good times - youth, youth, and then it seemed it would never end. And here is a break - you are already well over 60 🤣. Of the outstanding line-up of the group, only Box is alive, and the last album seems to be not bad, but somehow it doesn’t warm like before. Increasingly, between going for a drink or going to the “girl”, you choose the first 😂😜. Good luck to all

Saw them in '73 in Albuquerque. Manfred Mann opened for them.

[markriva]

This shit regularly rocked classic radio of the late 70's and I enjoyed every last minute of it! #ChicagoRocks

[USMCRON]

My band opened our second set with this song back in the 70’s. Smoke machines, flash pots, full light show.
Great days, I miss them!

[jeffn]

Saw the heep when they opened for KISS in the mid 70's. They were better than KISS.

[rajeshkaran]

Uriah Heep for me is Right Up there with my Other Rock Gods … Led Zeppelin, Deep Purple, Black Sabbath, Cream, Humble Pie☝️

[sweetiebird]

I put my own 8 track player and homemade speakers in my first car in 1973. "Dark Side of the Moon" was the first 8 track I played followed by Uriah Heep. That's a 19yr. old's best memory. The worst was I couldn't be 20 on "Sugar Mountain" and I was about to be.

[Zigblues]

I retired two years ago and am 67 yo, and for the past day for some reason I had this very song in my head, so came in for a fix! A great one, and my high school band "Soundstorm" (my brother on Hammond, me on guitar, our drummer singing, and bass) did this number! A great era for music and Uriiah Heep was key- sure as hell hope they made Rock Hall of Fame, as they deserve it!

[visualverbs]

THE BEST band of the 1970's.

Period.

[GRILLBUOY]
