Pack up all those phantoms
shoulder that invisible load
keep on riding north and west
haunting that wilderness road
like a ghost rider
Carry all those phantoms
through bitter wind and stormy skies
from the desert to the mountain
from the lowest low to the highest high
like a ghost rider
Keep on riding north and west
then circle south and east
show me beauty, but there is no peace
for the ghost rider
Shadows on the road behind
shadows on the road ahead
nothing can stop you now
There's a shadow on the road behind
there's a shadow on the road ahead
nothing can stop you now
Sunrise in the mirror
lightens that invisible load
riding on a nameless quest
haunting that wilderness road
like a ghost rider
Just an escape artist
racing against the night
a wandering hermit
racing toward the light
From the white sands
to the canyonlands
to the redwood stands
to the barren lands
Sunrise on the road behind
sunset on the road ahead
there's nothing to stop you now
nothing can stop you now
