Píseň: The Hanging Tree

Interpret:
Uriah Heep
Album:
Firefly
Crush into the arms of Satan 
Reaching for the hands of God 
I'm robbing ev'ry mind of wisdom 
Running so he won't get caught 
He's out the law by majority 
In branded all his live 
And some say that he's a sinner man 
As he rides from day to night 


He's a bad man so they say 
Livin' for his life and livin' free 
Running swift and secretly 
So we'll miss the hanging tree 
Wounded spirits on the wind 
Ridin' to his dream and destiny 


He's locking up the wall of posters 
Calling for his friends to see 
Laughin' loud as he rides away 
Kicking up the dust with speed 
Time hunts him down the pathway 
And freedom is the horse he rides 
Glory is the dream he's after 
And fortune is his hearts delight
