(ghost) riders in the sky: a cowboy legend

Singer:charlie daniels band, the

an old cow polk went ridin' one dark and windy day

upon a ranch 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 sky and up the cloudy draw

yippee-i-yay

yippee-i-yo

ghost riders in the sky

their brands were still on fire and thier hoofs were made of steel

their horns were black and shiney and thier hot breath he could feel

a bolt of fear went through him as they thundered through the sky

yippee-i-yay

yippee-i-yo

ghost riders in the sky

their faces gone

their eyes were blurred

their shirts all soaked with sweat

their rindin' hard to catch that heard but they ain't caught 'em yet

'cause they got to ride forever in that range up in the sky

on horses snortin' fire. as they ride they hear their cry

yippee-i-yay

yippee-i-yo

ghost riders in the sky

as the riders loped on by him

he heard one call his name

'if you want to save your soul from hell

you're ridin' on that range

then cowboy

change your ways today.or with us you'll ride on

tryin' to catch the devil's herd across the endless sky'

yippee-i-yay

yippee-i-yo
