Two young cowboys went riding out one dark and windy day 
Upon a ridge they rested as they went along their way
When all at once a mighty herd of red eyed sheep they saw 
A-plowing through the ragged sky and up the cloudy draw 
Yippie yi yaaaaay 
Yippie yi oooooh
Ghost Riders in the sky 
Yippie yi yaaaaay 
Yippie yi oooooh
Ghost Riders in the sky 
Their brands were still on fire and their hooves were made of steel 
His heart was black and shiny and his hot breath he could feel 
A bolt of fear went through him as they thundered through the sky 
For he saw his Rider coming hard and he heard his joyful cry
Yippie yi yaaaaay 
Yippie yi oooooh
Ghost Riders in the sky 
Yippie yi yaaaaay 
Yippie yi oooooh
Ghost Riders in the sky
