Little coyote, little coyote you better run far and fast
There's some mighty mad rangers and they're hot on your trail
They got long belt guns, you'd better head for high gra**
Or they'll shoot you and hang you by a fence from your tail
Little coyote, little coyote I've heard your sad song
In the wild west wind there's a whistlin' tune
Little coyote, little coyote you'd better move along
This may be your last night to howl at the moon
[ harmonica ]
Little coyote, little coyote you'd better pick up your ears
Can't you hear those mad hunters comin' over the hill
They got no respect for your coyote tears
And I'm aiming to tell you they're aiming to k**
Little coyote, little coyote don't you be such a fool
You ain't go the sense of a man in the moon
You can run down the road like those roadrunners do
But little coyote, little coyote this ain't no cartoon
Little coyote, little coyote I've heard your sad song
In the wild west wind there's a whistlin' tune
Little coyote, little coyote you'd better move along
This may be your last night to howl at the moon
Little coyote, little coyote
Little coyote, little coyote
Little coyote, little coyote
