An old cowboy went riding 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-plowing through the ragged sky and up the cloudy draw
|
|
Their brands were still on fire and their hooves 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
|
He saw the Riders coming hard and he heard their mournful cry
|
|
Yippie yi yaaaaay
|
Yippie yi yohhhhh
|
Ghost Riders in the sky
|
|
Yippie yi yaaaaay
|
Yippie yi yohhhhh
|
Ghost Riders in the sky
|
|
Their faces gaunt, their eyes were blurred, their shirts all soaked with sweat
|
They're riding hard to catch that herd, but they ain't caught it yet
|
'Cause they've got to ride forever on that range up in the sky
|
On horses snorting fire
|
As they ride on hear them cry
|
|
The riders rode on by him and he heard one call his name
|
"If you want to save your soul from Hell a-riding on our range
|
Then cowboy change your ways today or with us you will ride
|
Trying to catch the Devil's herd, across the endless skies"
|
|
Yippie yi Yaaaaay
|
Yippie yi yohhhhh
|
Ghost Riders in the sky
|
|
Yippie yi Yaaaaay
|
Yippie yi yohhhhh
|
Ghost Riders in the sky
|
|
(music break)
|
|
Yippie yi Yaaaaay
|
Yippie yi yohhhhh
|
Ghost Riders in the sky
|
|
Yippie yi Yaaaaay
|
Yippie yi yohhhhh
|
Ghost Riders in the sky
|
|
Yippie yi Yaaaaay
|
Yippie yi yohhhhh
|
Ghost Riders in the sky
