The hanging tree


Passing through the arms of satan
Reaching for the hands of god
Robbing every mind for wisdom
Running so he wont get caught
Hes outlawed by majority
Been branded all his life
Some say that he's a sinner man
As he rides from day to night

Hes a bad man, so they say
Living for his love and living free
Riding swift and secretly
So hell miss the hanging tree
Wounded spirit on the wind
Riding to his dream and destiny

Hes laughing at the wanted posters
Calling for his friends to see
Laughing aloud as he rides away
Kicking up the dust with speed
Time hands him down a pathway
And freedom is a horse he rides
Glory is a dream he's after
And fortune is his hearts delight

Riding swift and secretly
So hell miss the hanging tree
Wounded spirit on the wind
Riding to his dream and destiny

Thank you because you correct this lyrics
 
The lyrics THE HANGING TREE of URIAH HEEP is also present in the album Firefly (1977)

Biografia

Uriah Heep is an English rock band formed in 1969 by producer Gerry Bron. The original lineup included vocalist David Byron, multi-instrumentalist Ken Hensley, guitarists Mick Box and Paul Newton, and drummer Nigel Olsson. Throughout their career, the band has undergone several lineup changes and musical style shifts, ranging from progressive rock to hard rock with jazz influences. Considered precursors to the progressive metal scene, Uriah Heep achieved great success in the 1970s with albums like *Demons and Wizards* (1972) and *The Magician's Birthday* (1972). Among their most representative songs are "Easy Livin'", "July Morning", "Lady in Black" and "Look at Yourself". Mick Box is the only original member still active in the group.
