Lyrics:

I was only seventeen
I fell in love with a gypsy queen
She told me, hold on!
Her father was the leading man
Said "You're not welcome on our land"
And then as a foe, he told me to go

He took me to a little shack
And put a whip across my back
Then told her, leave me
I was out for quite a time
Came back with her on my mind
Sweet little girl, she means all the world

Though I want my gypsy queen
Will she still be torn between
Her father and lover?
One day I will go to him
Strong enough to fight and win
The kind of a man, that he'll understand

If there was a Big Four of British Hard Rock and Heavy Metal in the early 70's, these guys would be in it with Black Sabbath, Deep Purple and Led Zeppelin

[johanduplessis]

I was 16 and this song layed the foundation for rock music. I am 61 and still love it. These legends will live forever...

[deniscanuel]

When I was only seventeen
I listened to Uriah Heep
They told me "Hold On"!

[alex.user-periferiynyy]

I'm from Russia. I'm 65. I continue to be their enthusiastic fan.

Als 69er geborener im Gründungsjahr dieser einmaligen Band danke, dass es Euch noch gibt und ich freu mich so sehr Euch im März 24 Live in Dortmund wieder zu sehen und zu genießen, danke, danke, danke

[Martin-rosb]

I was also 16 but today I'm 69 still the best 60's 70's and 80's music. Nobody can dispute the fact that we lived in the best of times in S. Africa.

Still rocks in 2023 🤘 Cheers from Denmark

[jeffdawson]

One of their songs that even Deep Purple must have envied.

[elangelrancio]

The very first step in the Byron era.
Uriah Heep the first line up was composed by fabulous music-wizards

[MT-rgfn]

I could never love anybody else the way I've loved Uriah Heep

[migatron]

I was only seventeen
I fell in love with a gypsy queen
She told me "hold on"
Her father was the leading man
Said "you're not welcome on our land"
And then as a foe, he told me to go
He took me to a little shack
And put a whip across my back
Then told her "leave me"
I was out for quite a time
Came back with her on my mind
Sweet little girl
She means all the world
Ah
Oh, I want my gypsy queen
Will she still be torn between
Her father and lover
One day I will go to him
Strong enough to fight and win
The kind of a man
That he'll understand
Ah
Ah
Ah

[richardharris]

Born in 1959, loved this band in my teens and still do. Greetings from a pensioned navyman from the Netherlands.

I’m 62 now and still a huge Heep fan. I remember playing this on my little record player and my dad tossing me headphones and telling me to use them. I later worked in radio and devoted an hour to nothing but Uriah Heep

[michaelfrantz]

Haha 65 I had this when it came out. We were young and fierce.

[paolasaggese]

Ho 67 anni ed ho acquistato l' LP all'epoca dell'uscita....lo ascolto ancora ....che sound....
