    GHOST RIDERS IN THE SKY
    AN OLD COWPOKE 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
    A -- PLOWIN' THROUGH THE RAGGED SKIES
    AND UP THE CLOUDY DRAW
    YIPPEE-I-AY---- YIPPEE-I-OHH----
    A GHOST HEARD IN THE SKY
    THEIR BRANDS WERE STILL ON FIRE AND THEIR HOOFS 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
    FOR HE SAW THE RIDERS COMIN' HARD
    AND HEARD THEIR MOUNRFUL CRY
    YIPPEE-I-AY---- YIPPEE-I-OHH----
    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 THEM YET
    THEY'VE GOT TO RIDE FOREVER ON THAT RANGE UP IN THE SKY
    ON HORSES SNORTIN' FIRE
    AS THEY RIDE ON HEAR THEM CRY
    YIPPEE-I-AY---- YIPPEE-I-OHH----
    GHOST RIDERS IN THE SKY
    AS THE RIDERS LOPED ON BY HIM HE HEARD ONE CALL HIS NAME
    IF YOU WANT TO SAVE YOUR SOUL FROM HELL A-RIDIN' ON A RANGE
    THEN COWBOY CHANGE YOUR WAYS TODAY OR WITH US YOU WILL RIDE
    A -- TRYIN' TO CATCH THAT DEVIL'S HERD
    ACROSS THESES ENDLESS SKIES
    YIPPEE-I-AY---- YIPPEE-I-OHH----
    GHOST RIDERS IN THE SKY
    YIPPEE-I-AY---- YIPPEE-I-OHH----
    GHOST RIDERS IN THE SKY

    My grandpa introduced me to this song. The original, not some crap remake. Now I'm showing it to my son, named after my grandpa. Sadly he passed 6 years before my son was born, but we keep his memory alive, that's certain. I miss him so much. Nobody will ever come close to filling the void he left. Best man I ever knew and grateful for every second I got with him

      On Amazon, I got softcover book about Stan Jones, the Singing Ranger, and a CD with 30 different Singers singing Ghost Riders in the Sky. 2 Women Singers on it too. 4 years ago..Plus on here UTUBE, There are 2 Videos about the The Cowboy Legend "Ghost Riders In The Sky". It started in Texas in 1889, very awful Tragic Story, but through Time and Legends The 1948 Song, came about written by Stan Jones, in 1948..Music and Lyrics. Greatest Sing ever Written, recordered over 100 times, at least, and lots of great instrumetal versons!! And recently new recordings by young artists. Plus a Parody Project with Johnny Cash somehow, called Ghost Donald in the Sky. It's good and Funny, so True too. It's here on UTUBE too. 🎶🎵🎶🤗🥰💕❤💕🐴🐎😅

    @ShellyAnn1a Před 2 lety +11

    Other than Stan Jones, the two best singers are Gene Autry and Marty Robbins, both are clear and deliver it more as a story than as a song. Growing up, I loved watching Gene Autry or listening to him on our old 1946 Zenith radio. That was back in the 1950s. I recently found his complete series of shows on DVD, now this 70 y/o lady can watch him again.

  • @CaptainAhorn
    @CaptainAhorn Před rokem +6

    I’ve heard almost all the innumerable variations of this song and this one is unique in the last verse, where the chorus takes over and sings “if you want to save your soul from hell a-riding on our range!” I don’t believe that any other rendition does this, quite interesting and dramatic. The harmony they use is also very interesting. Also note that there are 18 riders: 6+6+6. Probably intentional.
