Ballad!

There are so many versions of this song...too many really...and after listening to several I still haven't found my favorite. I think many of the instrumental versions get the music right....the haunting beat of it. Now if only a bass singer would stick to that music then you'd probably have my favorite. It's a good song and story nonetheless.

Ghost Riders in the Sky
written by Stan Jones


"Their brands were still on fire and their hooves 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 coming hard and he heard their mournful cry"
