1
An old cowboy went out on a dark and windy day
2
Upon a ridge he rested as he went along his way
3
When all at once a mighty herd of red-eyed cows he saw
4
Plowing through the ragged sky and up a cloudy draw
5
(Yippie aye-aaa, yippie aye-ooh)
6
The ghost riders in the sky
7
Their brands were still on fire and their hooves were made of steel
8
Their horns were black and shining and their hot breath, he could feel
9
A bolt of fear went through him as they thundered through the sky
10
For he saw the riders coming hard and he heard their mournful cry
11
(Yippie aye-aaa, yippie aye-ooh)
12
Ghost riders in the sky
13
Their faces gaunt, their eyes were blurred and shirts all soaked with sweat
14
They're riding hard to catch that herd but they ain't caught them yet
15
'Cause they've got to ride forever on that range up in the sky
16
On horses snorting fire as they ride and hear their cry
17
Yippie aye-aaa, yippie aye-ooh
18
(Ghost riders in the sky)
19
As the riders loped on by him, he heard one calls his name
20
If you want to save your soul from hell, riding on your range
21
Then cowboy change your ways today or with us you will ride
22
Trying to catch the devil's herd across these endless skies
23
(Yippie aye-aaa, yippie aye-ooh)
24
Yippie aye-aaa, yippie aye-ooh
25
Ghost riders in the sky
26
(Yippie aye-aaa, yippie aye-ooh)
