King Dude - Riders In The Sky (Cowboy Legend) lyrics

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
Come through the ragged skies and
Up a cloudy draw

Yippie-yi-aie, yippie-yi oh
Ghost riders 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 thеy thundered through the sky
For hе saw the riders coming hard
And he heard their mournful cry

Yippie-yi-aie, yippie-yi oh
Ghost riders in the sky

Their faces gaunt their eyes were blurred
Their shirts all soaked with sweat
They're riding hard to catch that herd
But they ain't caught them yet
They've got to ride forever on the
Range up in the sky
On horses snorting fire as they ride hard
Hear them cry

Yippie-yi-aie, yippie-yi oh
Ghost riders in the sky

The riders rode 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
Across these endless skies"

Yippie-yi-aie, yippie-yi oh
Ghost riders in the sky
Ghost riders in the sky
