Coyote Lyrics – Country Joe McDonald
Singer: Country Joe McDonald
Title: Coyote
Long time before white people came
Coyote ran on the western range
Howlin’ each night in the prairie wind
Brother and friend to the Indian
Huntin’ and livin’ side-by-side
Coyote and Indian tribe
Coyote, ghost of the desert
Coyote, mugwump of the plains
Coyote lived on a western range
Riding those hills through the rocks and sage
Sleepin’ each night by the light of the moon
Listen won’t you listen to Coyote’s tune
Coyote, Coyote
Oh listen, listen, to Coyote’s tune
Some people that Coyote was bad
He robbed the banks that the white man had
Took the sheep and the cattle too
Did more bad than one man can do
Coyote’s gone from the range today
Settlers came and drove him away
Coyote, ghost of the desert
Coyote, mugwump of the plains
Coyote lived in the western days
Riding those hills through the rocks and sage
Sleepin’ each night by the light of the moon
Oh listen won’t you listen to Coyote’s tune
Coyote, Coyote
Oh listen, listen, to Coyote’s tune
In 1850, government men
Chased Coyote all over the land
They hunted him by night and day
They killed Coyote or so they say
But some nights when the moon is full
You can see him come a-riding on over the hill
Coyote, ghost of the desert
Coyote, mugwump of the plains
Coyote lived in the western days
Riding through the rocks and sage
Sleepin’ each night by the light of the moon
Oh listen won’t you listen to Coyote’s tune
Coyote, Coyote
Oh listen, listen, to Coyote’s tune
