Lyrics:
An old cowboy went riding out
One dark and windy day
Upon a ridge he rested
As he went along his way
When all at once a mighty herd
Of red eyed cows he saw
Plowin’ through the ragged skies
And up the cloudy draw
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
Yippee -Yi-Yay
Yippee-Yi-O
Ghost Riders in the Sky
Their faces gaunt
Their eyes were blurred
Their shirts all soaked with sweat
He’s riding hard to catch that herd
But he ain’t caught ‘em yet
Cause they’ve got to ride forever
On that range up in the sky
On horses snorting fire
As they ride on, hear their cries
As the riders loped on by him
He heard one call his name
If you wanna save your soul
From hell or ridin’ on our range
Then cowboy change your ways today
Or with us, you will ride
Trying to catch the devils herd
Across these endless skies
Yippee-Yi-Yay
Yippee -Yi-O
Ghost Riders in the Sky
Yippee-Yi-Yay
Yippee -Yi-O
Ghost Riders in the Sky
Ghost Riders in the Sky

Lyrics:
America
How are ya?
I hope you’re doing fine
America
I love ya
And I fear you sometimes
America
You know I
Can be hard to understand
America
Please forgive me
I’m only a man
America
Have I told ya?
How I labor in your fields
America
I just keep working
Doesn’t matter how I feel
America
It’s been said that
My whole life is in your hands
So America
If you see me crying
Know I’m only a man
America
I wonder
If you remember me
America
You promised
And I’ve been waiting patiently
America
It’s easy
To get lost in this land
America
Can you see me?
Cause I’m only a man

Lyrics:
I’d be glad to tell you the story
About a solitary road
You can’t take nobody with you
And you ain’t coming back if you go
It’s a highway teeming with blackjack
On every corner young Jezebels
Well they say it can lead to salvation
But you won’t be able to tell
Cause it’s a solitary road
I was only a wanderer
A lonely child of circumstance
When I heard that nightingale calling me
And he flew right into my hands
Well he told me they’d rise up against me
As it turned out this was the case
I saw jackals roaming the valleys
Grifters all over the place
See it’s a solitary road
A kingdom lay high on the mountain
I could see it through rain and snow
Many had fallen in fields beside me
As I cross over every road
When I reached those gates of the city
I was trembling, I have to confess
Eyes of judgment lay heavy upon me
The red sun hung low in the west
On the solitary road

Lyrics:
When it comes to bad luck
I got perfect timing
All the stars just align
Me and trouble
We’re old friends
We understand each other fine
Because it’s hard luck
And circumstances
That brought me here
And if they hang around much longer
I might just disappear
For folks like me
There ain’t no justice
Only the road and it’s long
You might find it funny
My line of thinking
But that don’t make me wrong
You know it’s hard luck
And circumstances
That brought me here
And if they hang around much longer
I might just disappear
Yeah buddy
I said it’s hard luck
And circumstances
That brought me here
And if they hang around much longer
I might just disappear
Yes it’s hard luck
And circumstances
That brought me here
And if they hang around much longer
I’ll likely disappear

Lyrics:
I’m a ten dollar cowboy
Baby that’s a fact
I got some inhibitions
That might be holding me back
I’ve been seeing this portrait
Attached to a small fee
For a ten dollar cowboy
Who looks a lot like me
If you’re a ten dollar cowboy
Then you already know
That there never was a rider
Who couldn’t be thrown
Even Billy McClain
Fell off a time or two
He was a ten dollar cowboy
Who looked a lot like you
I’m a ten dollar cowboy
I play a little guitar
People always ask me
If I’m a rodeo star
Doubt if I got eight seconds
But I can sing you a song
Like a big bull rider
I’m steady holding on
You see the ten dollar cowboy
He leads a colorful life
Don’t you worry about him
He knows he’ll only die twice
Like Billy McClain
He’s the last of his breed
He’s just a ten dollar cowboy
Who looks a lot like me
He looks a lot like me
He looks a lot like me
Yeah
When I was out there on them street corners
Learning to stand behind this guitar
Ten dollars was a whole lot of money
Cowboy
Cowboy singer
Both highly hazardous occupations
Look out!

Lyrics:
“That’s What Makes the World Go Round”
a young woman in the window
wonders what the futures got in store
she heard about the city
and it's night life’s got her wanting so much more
she sees children in the street
out there playing right up till nightfall
and as the evening sun goes down
she thinks that’s what makes the world go around
she’s dreaming of the good life
but all she finds is a long and winding road
full of trials and tribulations
conflicting information on where to go
though the bar is unforgiving
she always hears that neon call her name
she’s livin' for a honky tonk sound
the one that makes her world go around
same woman different window
reminiscing about those simple times
she’s drinking to remember
and dancing to forget what’s on her mind
the children in the street
are all grown up playing those same games
while they run right through this town
just a little bit further down
cause that’s what makes the world go around
that’s what makes the world go around

Lyrics:
Gather round the fire boys a story I will tell
About a persecution I’m sure you don’t know well
An Oklahoma tale of trading land and gems
And goin’ down a river that you can’t come back up again
Anna Brown was killed in May of ‘21
They made it look like Anna was just having too much fun
Meanwhile in town they threw a big parade
There stood William Hale and the range war that he waged
Just across the county on that very day
In a pool of blood did Charles Whitehorn lay
Charles was Anna’s cousin, so was Henry Roan
Who died shortly after William Hale made him a loan
William Hale had him a nephew who’d married Mollie Kyle
Mollie was Anna’s sister and it sunk in after while
In cities across the country all the papers read
“Reign Of Terror Continues, Another Indian Dead”
Ol’ Hickory Andrew Jackson drove ‘em down through Tennessee
From Ohio came the Osage the mountains, Cherokee
They left ‘em there to wither on that southern Kansas soil
But this was before the man discovered oil
If you come around here with pretty flowers to sow
You might stop and notice nobody’s very old
Grass grows so high it covers up the graves
But listen for a while and it might start givin’ names
They called him the King of the Osage Hills
He went and got everybody killed
Now they talk about the weather like it’s judgment coming soon
For the Killers of the Flower Moon

"Welcome To Hard Times"
Life’s a casino
I’m telling you
And everybody’s playing
Boys and girls
women children
Me and you
The dice are loaded
And everything’s fixed
Even a hobo would tell you this
Welcome to hard times
And feeling low
Do you like sinning, no?
Well you will before you go
We got lots of gambling
Oh, and we’re telling lies
You’re certainly welcome to hard times
Take a look in my eyes
Tell me what you see
Besides the bright blinking lights
Stretched out in front of me
I wonder if you’ll notice
Would you even care
If I told you my life just isn’t fair
Welcome to hard times
And feeling low
Do you like sinning, no?
Well you will before you go
We got lots of gambling
Oh, and we’re telling lies
You’re certainly welcome to hard times
Yes, hope you’re feeling welcome to hard times

"Jamestown Ferry"
She just caught the Jamestown Ferry
It's not a hot day in January
Like she said it'd be if she ever left me
A case of gone was all she carried
As she got on the Jamestown Ferry
And she said that gone was all she'd ever be
I didn't think that she leave me
After sayin' how much she needs me
But the fact still remains I'm sittin' here all alone
Missin' the lovin' of my baby
Lord, it's about to drive me crazy
She was the sweetest piece of heaven I've ever known
She just caught the Jamestown Ferry
It's not a hot day in January
Like she said it'd be if she ever left me
A case of gone was all she carried
As she got on the Jamestown Ferry
And she said that gone was all she'd ever be
As I walk through that valley of honky tonks and bars
I remember how she'd hold me and comfort me with talk
She didn't cuss with every breath
She had a soothing southern drawl
Made me feel like a man through it all
She just caught the Jamestown Ferry
It's not a hot day in January
Like she said it'd be if she ever left me
