| Lyrics: | Yippie-I-a, yippie-I-o
Ghost riders in the sky
An old cowpoke went ridin' out one
dark and windy day
(yippie-I-a)
Upon a ridge he rested as he went along his way
When
all at once a mighty bunch of red eyed cows he saw
Plowin' through the ragged sky, and up a
cloudy draw
Yippie-I-a, yippie-I-o
Ghost riders in the sky
Their brands
were still on fire and their hoofs were made of steel
( yippie-I-a)
Their horns were black
and shinny and their hot breath he could feel
A bolt of fear went through him as they thundered
through the sky
He saw the riders commin' hard, and he heard their mournful
cry
Yippie-I-a, yippie-I-o
Ghost riders in the sky
Their faces gaunt,
their eyes were blurred,
Their shirts all soaked with sweat. (yippie-I-a)
They're ridin'
hard to catch that herd, but they aint caught 'em yet'
'Cause ya gotta ride forever on that
range up in the sky,
On horses snorting fire, as they ride on, hear their
cry.
Yippie-I-a, yippie-I-o
Ghost riders in the sky
As the riders went on
by him, he heard one call his name
(yippie-I-a)
If you wantta to save your soul from ever
ridin' on our range,
Then cowboy change your way today, or with us you will ride,
Tryin'
to catch the devil's herd, across these endless skies
Yippie-I-a, yippie-I-o
Ghost
riders in the sky
Ghost riders in the sky |
