The Outlaws (Southern Rock Band) - Riders in the Sky (Ghost) lyrics
[The Outlaws Southern Rock Band - Riders in the Sky Ghost lyrics]
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 steers he saw
A plowin' through the ragged skies
And up a 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
He saw the riders coming hard and
He heard their mournful cry
Yippie i ay Yippie i oh ghost riders in
Ghost riders in the sky yippie i ay
(Yippie i ay) Yippie i oh (Yippie i oh)
Ghost riders in the sky
Their faces gaunt, their eyes were blurred
Their shirts all soaked with sweat
They're ridin' hard to catch that herd
But they 'ain't caught 'em yet
'Cause they've got to ride forever in
The range up in the sky
On horses snorting fire as they ride hard
Hear them cry
Yippie i ay Yippie i oh ghost riders in
Ghost riders in the sky
Ghost riders in the sky
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 steers he saw
A plowin' through the ragged skies
And up a 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
He saw the riders coming hard and
He heard their mournful cry
Yippie i ay Yippie i oh ghost riders in
Ghost riders in the sky yippie i ay
(Yippie i ay) Yippie i oh (Yippie i oh)
Ghost riders in the sky
Their faces gaunt, their eyes were blurred
Their shirts all soaked with sweat
They're ridin' hard to catch that herd
But they 'ain't caught 'em yet
'Cause they've got to ride forever in
The range up in the sky
On horses snorting fire as they ride hard
Hear them cry
Yippie i ay Yippie i oh ghost riders in
Ghost riders in the sky
Ghost riders in the sky
