Ghost Riders Lyrics

Ghost Riders lyrics

An old cowpoke 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 skies and up a cloudy draw.

Yipie i
ay Yipie i oh
Ghost herd in the sky

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

Yipie i ay Yipie i oh
Ghost riders in the
sky.

Their face is gaunt their eyes were blurred their shirts all
soaked
with sweat
They're ridin' hard to catch that herd but they 'aint
caught 'em yet
'cause they've got to ride forever in the range up in the
sky
On horses snorting fire as they ride hard hear them cry

Yipie i
ay Yipie i oh
Ghost riders in the sky.

The riders leaned on by him he
heard one call his name
If you want to save your soul from hell a riding on
our range
Then cow-boy change your ways today or with us you will
ride
Tryin' to catch this devil herd.... a-cross these
endless
skies.

Yipie i ay Yipie i oh
Ghost riders in the
sky.
Ghost riders in the sky.
Ghost riders in the sky.
