Riders In The Sky Lyrics
Riders In The Sky - Kay Starr
An old cowboy went riding 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
Plowing through the ragged skies
And up a cloudy draw
Yippie I yeah
Yippie I 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 they thundered in the sky
He saw the riders coming hard
And he heard their mournful cries
Yippie I yeah
Yippie I oh
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 yeah
Yippie I oh
Ghost riders in the sky
Yippie I oh can oh can yeah
Yippie I oh can yeah
Yippie I oh can oh can yeah
Yippie I oh can yeah
Yippie I oh can oh can yeah
Yippie I oh can yeah
Yippie I oh can oh can yeah
