(Ghost) Riders in the Sky

(Ghost) Riders in the Sky - Johnny Cash

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

For he saw the Riders coming hard

And he heard their mournful cry

Yippie yi Ohhhhh

Yippie yi yaaaaay

Ghost Riders in the sky

Their faces gaunt

Their eyes were blurred

Their shirts all soaked with sweat

He's riding hard to catch that herd

But he ain't caught 'em yet

'Cause they've got to ride forever on

That range up in the sky

On horses snorting fire

As they ride on hear their cry

As the riders loped on by him

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 these endless skies

Yippie yi Ohhhhh

Yippie yi Yaaaaay

Ghost Riders in the sky

Ghost Riders in the sky

Ghost Riders in the sky
