Lyrics

[Verse 1] An old cowpoke 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 A-plowing through the ragged skies, and up the cloudy drawl [Chorus] Yippie-ki-aie Yippie-ai-oh Ghost herd in the sky [Verse 2] Their brands were still on fire and their hooves were made of steel Their horn were black and shiny and their hot breath he could feel A bolt of fear went through him as they thundered through the sky He saw the riders comin' hard, he heard their mournful cry [Chorus] Yippie-ki-aie (Yippie-ki-aie) Yippie-ai-oh (Yippie-ai-oh) Ghost riders in the sky [Verse 3] The riders looped 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 'cross these endless skies [Chorus] Yippie-ki-aie (Yippie-ki-aie) Yippie-ai-oh (Yippie-ai-oh) Ghost riders in the sky Ghost riders in the sky
