STEALIN'
(Ken Hensley)

Uriah Heep



Take me across the water 'cause I need someplace 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 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'

Well fightin' killin' wine and those women gonna put me to an early grave
Runnin' hidin' losin' cryin' nothing left to save but my 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'
