[Peggy Lee - Ghost Riders in the Sky A Cowboy Legend lyrics]
(Ghost Riders in the Sky)
An old cow polk went ridin’ out
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-IYay Yippee-IYay)
Ghost herd in the Sky
Their brands were still on fire and
Their hoofs were made of steel
Their horns were black and shiney 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
(Yippee-IYay Yippee-IYay)
Yippee-IYo, Yippee-IYay
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 these endless sky'
(Yippee-IYay Yippee-IYay)
The ghost herd in the Sky
Ghost Riders in the Sky
An old cow polk went ridin’ out
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-IYay Yippee-IYay)
Ghost herd in the Sky
Their brands were still on fire and
Their hoofs were made of steel
Their horns were black and shiney 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
(Yippee-IYay Yippee-IYay)
Yippee-IYo, Yippee-IYay
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 these endless sky'
(Yippee-IYay Yippee-IYay)
The ghost herd in the Sky
Ghost Riders in the Sky
