Ghost Riders In The Sky (Stan Jones cover) (Blooddrunk - 2008)
An old cowboy went out 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 Plowing through the ragged sky and up a cloudy draw Yippie-aye-aee, yippie-aye-ohh, Ghost riders in the sky
Their brands were still on fire And their hooves were made of steel Their horns were black and shining 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 Yippie-aye-ooh, yippie-aye-aee, Ghost riders in the sky
Their faces gaunt their eyes Were blurred and shirts all soaked with sweat He's riding hard to catch that herd But he ain't caught them yet 'Cause they've got to ride forever On that range up in the sky On horses snorting fire As they ride on hear their cry Yippie-aye-aee, yippie-aye-ohh, Ghost riders in the sky
As 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 A-trying to catch the devil's herd Across these endless skies Yippie-aye-aee, yippie-aye-ooh, Ghost riders in the sky Yippie-aye-aee, yippie-aye-ooh, Ghost riders in the sky
