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.

A man?

Jesse James was a man who killed many a man. He robbed the Glendale train. He stole from the rich and he gave to the poor, he’d a hand and a heart and a brain. Poor Jesse had a wife to mourn for his life, three children, they were brave; But the dirty little coward that shot Mr. Howard has laid Jesse James in his grave.
