Ghost Riders In The Sky – Johnny Cash Live in 1987

Details

Description

This song was originally written in 1948 by the musician Stan Jones.

The song tells a folk tale of a cowboy who has a vision of a red-eyed cattle thundering across the sky, being chased by the spirits of cursed cowboys. One warns him that if he does not change his ways, he will be doomed to join them, forever “trying to catch the Devil's herd across these endless skies”.
The story has been linked with old European myths of the Wild Hunt and the Dutch/Flemish legend of the Buckriders, in which a supernatural group of hunters passes the narrator in wild pursuit.
