Diamonds & Rust

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

A-plowing through the ragged sky and up the cloudy draw

Their brands were still on fire and

Their hooves were made of steel

Their horns were black and shinny 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 high and

He heard their mornful cry

Yupeeyayo

Yupeeyayeah

Ghost riders in the sky

Their faces gaunt their eyes were blurred

Their shirts all soaked with sweat

He's riding hard to catch that herd

But he still ain't caught them yet

Coz they've got to ride forever on

Their range up in the sky

On horses snorting fire as they ride hear their cry

Yupeeyayo

Yupeeyayeah

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 ride 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

Yupeeyayo

Yupeeyayeah

Ghost riders in the sky

Yupeeyayo

Yupeeyayeah

Ghost riders in the sky

Yupeeyayo

Yupeeyayeah

Ghost riders in the sky

Yupeeyayo

Yupeeyayeah

Ghost riders in the sky

Ghost riders in the sky
