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 a cloudy draw
Yi-pi-yi-ay, Yi-pi-yi-o
Ghost herd in the sky
Their brands were still on fire and their hooves were made of steel
Their horns wuz black and shiny and their hot breaths he could feel
A bolt of fear went through him as they thundered through the sky
For he saw the riders comin' hard and he heard their mournful cry
Yi-pi-yi-ay, Yi-pi-yi-o
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 in that range up in the sky
On horses snortin' flame an' fire, as they ride on, hear them cry
Yi-pi-yi-ay, Yi-pi-yi-o
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 our range"
"Then cowboy change your ways today or with us you will ride"
"A-tryin' to catch the Devil's herd across these endless skies."
Yi-pi-yi-ay, Yi-pi-yi-o
Ghost riders in the sky

Jinetes en el Cielo
Un viejo vaquero salió a cabalgar en un día oscuro y ventoso
En una cresta descansó mientras seguía su camino
Cuando de repente vio una manada poderosa de vacas de ojos rojos
Arando a través de los cielos desgarrados y subiendo por un barranco nublado
Yi-pi-yi-ay, Yi-pi-yi-o
Manada fantasma en el cielo
Sus marcas aún estaban en llamas y sus cascos eran de acero
Sus cuernos eran negros y brillantes y podía sentir sus alientos calientes
Un rayo de miedo lo recorrió mientras tronaban por el cielo
Pues vio a los jinetes acercándose con fuerza y escuchó su llanto melancólico
Yi-pi-yi-ay, Yi-pi-yi-o
Jinetes fantasma en el cielo
Sus rostros demacrados, sus ojos borrosos, sus camisas empapadas de sudor
Cabalgan con fuerza para atrapar esa manada pero aún no los han alcanzado
Deben cabalgar eternamente en ese rango en el cielo
En caballos resoplando llamas y fuego, mientras cabalgan, escúchalos llorar
Yi-pi-yi-ay, Yi-pi-yi-o
Jinetes fantasma en el cielo
Mientras los jinetes pasaban junto a él, escuchó a uno llamar su nombre
"Si quieres salvar tu alma del infierno cabalgando en nuestro rango"
"Entonces vaquero, cambia tus formas hoy o con nosotros cabalgarás"
"Intentando atrapar la manada del Diablo a través de estos cielos interminables."
Yi-pi-yi-ay, Yi-pi-yi-o
