Up on the Ridge I seen a rider passin' by

Up on the Ridge I seen a rider passin' by

I heard thunder in the distance

I seen lightning in his eye



Up on the Ridge I gotta tangle with my fate

Up on the Ridge I gotta tangle with my fate

Details must be dealt with

before the hour gets too late



Up on the Ridge there's a highway headin' home

Where the ramblin' men must leave their sin

Up on the Ridge



Up on the Ridge there's a fire about to burn

Up on the Ridge there's a fire about to burn

When the sun sets on the Lowlands, only one of us will return



Up on the Ridge there's a highway headin' home

Where the ramblin' men must leave their sin

Up on the Ridge
