♪ ♪ ♪ ♪ An old cowboy went riding out one dark and windy day ♪ Up on a ring he rested as he went along his way ♪ When all at once a mighty herd of red-eyed cows he saw ♪ Plowing through the ragged sky ♪ And up a 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 skies For he saw the riders coming hard ♪ And he heard their mournful cry ♪ Yippee-aye-oh ♪ Yippee-aye-ay Yippee-aye-ay ♪ Ghost riders in the sky ♪ Their faces gaunt, their eyes were blurred, their shirts all soaked in sweat ♪ He's riding hard to catch that herd but he ain't caught him yet ♪ Cause they've got to ride forever on that range up in the sky All the horses snorting fire ♪ As the rider heard their cry ♪ As the riders looked on by him he heard one call his name ♪ If you want to save your soul from hell riding on our range Cowboy change your ways today or with us you will ride Trying to catch the devil's herd ♪ Across these endless skies ♪ Yippee-aye-oh ♪ Yippee-aye-oh ♪ Ghost riders in the sky ♪ Ghost riders in the sky ♪ Ghost riders in the sky Ghost riders in the sky ♪ � � ��������������
