  1. If there's something strange
    in your neighborhood
    Who ya gonna call?
    GHOSTBUSTERS

    If there's something weird
    and it don't look good
    Who ya gonna call?
    GHOSTBUSTERS

    I ain't afraid of no ghosts
    I ain't afraid of no ghosts

    If you're seeing things
    running through your head
    Who can ya call?
    GHOSTBUSTERS

    An invisible man
    sleeping in your bed
    Who ya gonna call?
    GHOSTBUSTERS

    I ain't afraid of no ghosts
    I ain't afraid of no ghosts

    Title: Ghostbusters (duh)

  2. An old cowpoke went ridin' 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
    Come rushin' through the ragged skies and up a cloudy draw.

    Yipie i ay Yipie i oh
    Ghost riders in the sky

    Their brands were still on fire and their hooves were made of steel.
    Their horns were black and shiny, and their hot breath you could feel.
    A bolt of fear went through him as they thundered through the sky.
    He saw the riders coming hard... and he heard their mournful cry.

    Yipie i ay Yipie i oh
    Ghost riders in the sky.

    Their face is gaunt, their eyes were blurred, their shirts all soaked with sweat.
    They're ridin' hard to catch that herd, but they ain't caught 'em yet.
    'cause they've got to ride forever in the range up in the sky,
    On horses snorting fire. As they ride hard hear them cry.

    Yipie i ay Yipie i oh
    Ghost riders in the sky.

    The riders leaned on by him he heard one call his name,
    "If you want to save your soul from hell a-riding on our range,
    Then cow-boy change your ways today or with us you will ride,
    Tryin' to catch this devil herd... a-cross these endless skies."

    Yipie i ay Yipie i oh
    Ghost riders in the sky.
    Ghost riders in the sky.
    Ghost riders in the sky.
