THEME II
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

THEME III
Their faces gaunt, their eyes were blurred
Their shirts all soaked with sweat
They�re ridin’ hard to catch that herd
But they ain’t caught them yet
(‘Cause) they’ve got to ride forever
In that range up in the sky
On horses snortin’ flame an�fire
As they ride on, hear them cry

THEME IV
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
tryin’ to catch the Devil’s herd
Across these endless skies
