An old cow polk went ridin' out one dark and windy day
|
Upon a ridge 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
|
The Ghost Herd in the Sky
|
|
Their brands were still on fire and thier hoofs were made of steel
|
Their horns were black and shiny and their hot breath he could feel
|
A bolt of fear went through him as they thundered through the sky
|
For he saw the riders comin' hard and he heard their mournful cry
|
|
Yippee-I-Yay
|
Yippee-I-Yo
|
Ghost Riders in the Sky
|
|
Their faces gaunt, 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 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 aridin' on our range
|
then cowboy, change your ways today or with us you will ride
|
atryin' to catch the devil's herd across the endless sky'
|
Yippee-I-Yay (Yippee-I-Yay)
|
Yippee-I-Yo (Yippee-I-Yo)
|
Ghost Riders in the Sky
