An old cow polk went ridin’ one dark and windy day
|
Upon a ranch he rested as he went along his way
|
When all at once a mighty herd of red eyed cows he saw
|
A plowin’ through the ragged sky and up the cloudy draw
|
|
Yippee-I-Yay
|
Yippee-I-Yo
|
Ghost herd in the Sky
|
|
|
Their brands were still on fire and thier hoofs were made of steel
|
Their horns were black and shiney and thier hot breath he could feel
|
A bolt of fear went through him as they thundered through the sky
|
For he saw the riders coming hard and he heard their mournful cry
|
|
Yippee-I-Yay
|
Yippee-I-Yo
|
Ghost Riders in the Sky
|
|
Their faces gone, their eyes were blurred , their shirts all soaked with sweat
|
Their rindin’ hard to catch that heard but they ain’t caught ‘em yet
|
‘Cause they got to ride forever in that range up in the sky
|
On horses snortin’ fire... as they ride on they hear their cry
|
|
|
Yippee-I-Yay
|
Yippee-I-Yo
|
Ghost Riders in the Sky
|
|
|
As the riders loped on by him, he heard one call his name
|
'If you want to save your soul from hell, you’re ridin’ on that range
|
then cowboy, change your ways today……or with us you’ll ride on
|
tryin’ to catch the devil’s herd across these endless sky'
|
Yippee-I-Yay (Yippee-I-Yay)
|
Yippee-I-Yo (Yippee-I-Yo)
|
Ghost Riders in the Sky
