two columns

OPENER - MIDDLE BREAK - CLOSER    Basic

Circle left
*An old cow poke went ridin' out one dark and windy day
Upon a ridge he rested as he went along his way

Walk all around that corner girl, to the partner dopaso
The partner left, corner by the right
The partner roll promenade you go
Yippi-i-ya, yippi-i-o
Ghost riders in the sky


ALTERNATE LYRICS

*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


*The riders loped on by him, he heard one call his name
You wanta save your soul from hell a ridin' on our range


FIGURE    Basic, corner progression

1 & 3 (2 & 4) you dosado full around and then
Square thru four hands, four hands around my friend
Make a right hand star with the outside two, one time no more
Back to the middle with a left hand star (one time around)
Swing that corner there
Promenade, promenade
Ghost riders in the sky
