Ooooh And knock our door open right now, on this dark and gloomy day Found her richy rested as we went along this way When all that was a mighty herd of red-eyed cows we saw A-plowin' through the ragged sky And up a bloody door Yippee-aye-oh, yippee-aye-ay The gold stride is in the sky Whistle Their friends were on fire and their hooves were made of steel Their horns were black and shiny and their hot breath we could feel A bold affair went on as they run through the sky We saw the riders comin' high And heard their mournful cry Yippee-aye-oh, yippee-aye-ay The gold stride is in the sky Whistle As the riders rusted by him, he heard them call his name If you want to save your soul from hell, stop riding on our reign Then cowboy change your ways today or we'll ask you to ride And try to catch the devil herd across these endless skies Yippee-aye-oh, yippee-aye-ay The gold stride is in the sky
