Riders In The Sky - The Ames Brothers

Ghost riders in the sky

An old cowboy 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

Plowin through the ragid skies and up a cloudy draw

Yippie i aye Yippie i aye

Yippie i oh Yippie i oh

The ghost 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

For he saw the riders coming hard

And he heard their mournful cries

Yippie i aye Yippie i aye

Yippie i ohhh Yippie i ohhh

The Ghost riders in the sky

Their faces gaunt their eyes were blurred

Their shirts all soaked with sweat

He's ridin hard to catch that herd

But he 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 on hear their cries

Yippie i aye Yippie i aye

Yippie i ohhh Yippie i ohhh

The ghost riders in the sky

As the riders loped on by him he heard one call his name

If you wanna 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 i aye Yippie i aye

Yippie i ohhh Yippie i ohhh

The ghost in the sky
