Richard Thompson - Coyotes
текст песни

Theres a cowboy I knew in south Texas
His face was burnt deep by the sun
Part history, part sage, part Mexican
He was there when Pancho Villa was young

And he'd tell you a tail of the old days
When the country was wild all around
He'd sit out under the stars of the Milky Way
And he’d listen as the coyotes howled and they go..

Poo yip poo yip poo
Poodi hoo di yip poo di yip poo
Poo yip poo yip poo
Poo di hoo di yip poo di yip poo

Now the Longhorns are gone and the drovers are gone
The Comanche are gone and the out laws are gone
Geronimos gone and Sam Bass is gone
And the lion is gone and the red wolf is gone

Add Lyrics:

Well he cursed all the roads and the oil rigs
And he cursed the automobile
Said "this aint no place for an hombre like I am
In this new world of asphault and steel"

Then He'd look off some place in the distance
At somethin only he could see
He’d say "all thats left now of the old days
Are them damned ol' coyotes and me" and they go

Poo yip poo yip poo
Poo di hoo di yip poo di yip poo
Poo yip poo yip poo
Poo di hoo di yip poo di yip poo

And the Longhorns are gone and the drovers are gone
The Comanches are gone and the outlaw is gone
San Juati is gone, Quatro is gone
And the buffalo gone and the red wolf is gone

One mornin we searched his adobe
He disappeared without even a word
But that night as the moon crossed the mountains
One more coyote was heard and he'd go
