歌词与中文翻译
An old cowboy went ridin' out one dark and windy day
一个阴暗多风的日子，老牛仔骑马外出
Upon a ridge he rested as he went along his way
爬上山脊时，他因长途跋涉稍事休息
When all at once a mighty herd of red eyed cows, he saw
突然看见一群火红双眼的凶猛牛群
Plowed through the ragged skies and up a cloudy draw
冲开破碎天空，直上云端
Their brands were still on fire and their hooves were made of steel
它们身上的烙印犹带著火焰，它们的双蹄是钢铁所铸
Their horns were black and shiny and their hot breath you could feel
漆黑的牛角闪亮，他几可感到它们炽热的呼吸
A bolt of fear went through him as they thundered through the sky
当它们雷霆万钧跑过天空，老牛仔被眼前场景震慑
For he saw the riders coming hard and he heard their mournful cry
一群骑士匆忙赶来，口中发出悲叹
Yipie I oh, yipie I ay, ghost riders in the sky
喝——哈！驾！幽灵牛群奔腾天际
Their face is gaunt, their eyes were blurred
他们面容憔悴，他们双眼无神，衣衫浸满汗水
Their shirts all soaked with sweat
He's ridin' hard to catch that herd but he 'ain't caught 'em yet
他们疾驰而来，追捕牛群，但一无所获
'Cause they've got to ride forever on that range up in the sky
一直以来，奔驰在天空的牧场
On horses snorting fire as they ride on, hear them cry
骑著鼻息喷火的马匹，听听他们的悲嚎吧
As the riders leaned on by him, he heard one call his name
当他们策马经过他身边，其中一人呼叫他的名姓：
If you want to save your soul from hell a riding on our range
「如果你想拯救自己的灵魂，免於沦落地狱，如我等受这无尽劳役
Then cowboy change your ways today or with us you will ride
牛仔啊！改邪归正吧！否则你也将与我们同骑
Tryin' to catch the devil herd across these endless skies
奔驰在无垠天空，追赶恶魔的牲畜」
Yipie I oh, yipie I ay, ghost riders in the sky
喝——哈！驾！幽灵骑士奔驰天际
Ghost riders in the sky, ghost riders in the sky
幽灵骑士奔驰天际 , 幽灵骑士奔驰天际
