It was a Ghost Town, yeah down by the river Just about twenty miles pas county line I don't remember, exactly how we got there But I ain't ever goin to forget the day that Ghost Town tried
We pulled up to a filling station Yeah right next door was a hotel and saloon Let's get crazy! I said to the boys then We pulled out our guns and started shooting at the moon!
We got lost in North Dakota You know me; I wouldn't lie When that Ghost Town tried to kill me You ain't gonna believe who saved our lives. Hell I don't even believe who saved our lives.
I started gambling, and I caught a cheater I pulled out my gun and shot him right between the eyes. He didn't fall down, hell, he didn't even start bleeding And that's when I noticed there was something definitely wrong
All the barmaids had turned to demons And the whislkey in my glass had turned as cold as ice I started praying, boys they started screaming! We all got up and started running for our lives...
We got lost in North Dakota You know me; I wouldn't lie When that Ghost Town tried to kill me You ain't gonna believe who saved our lives. Just hold on you're 'bout to find out who saved our lives
Now this next part may seem kinda crazy But I swear on my pappy's grave that it's the truth We were surrounded in this little prairy When the sky turned an awfull wicked blue
There were noises kinda like a train wreck I couldn't help but think this day would be my last Then the clouds, they started changing And out from them came the ghost of Johnny Cash!
We got lost in North Dakota You know me; I wouldn't lie When that Ghost Town tried to kill me The ghost of Johnny Cash saved our lives That's right the ghost of Johnny Cash came down and saved all our lives!
