GHOSTRIDER

He called himself, "Ghostrider" and rode a Harley across the highway and into town,
Something seemed to be different about him as folks watched him ride all around.
There were times he would stop after riding along way to give himself a rest,
Everyone wondered how he got his name dressed in his black leather jacket and vest.

Then one day a man walked up to him and asked him, "Why is Ghostrider your name?",
He said "I like the feeling of riding down the highway all alone except one day it didn't feel the same."
"As I looked across the desert, I saw a vision of a cowboy on horseback riding through the brush, rocks, and stone,
I didn't know whether to stop or keep going until I could get somewhere and call a friend on the phone."

"When I see this "ghostly" vision it reminds me of my past,
When before I became a biker, I rode horses until I got hurt and I had to give it up at last.
So this is why I call myself "Ghostrider" cause I know when I get on this Harley and ready to ride,
I am not alone anymore as this cowboy is riding with me side by side."
