Willis Alan Ramsey - Coyote lyrics

The moon is out tonight - it's hanging high The stars are hiding in the sky And the distance - somewhere I know Keeping down and laying low Is a coyote Upon the ridge and the hills beyond There lie the tracks of the vagabond He's on the move again across the Chaparral Where's he's heading now - no-one can tell But he's running on the wings of the night He's running wild and free He's a badlands refugee And he don't know wrong from right He's just chasing down his dreams He's a bit like me it seems Coyote The sage brush blows with the cold north wind They say that soon he must come again Running across the desert floor Soon he'll be there - right by your door Coyote Some say the coyote is not to blame For the bounty that's put on his name And as you look there into his eyes There's no regrets - and no alibis But he's running on the wings of the night He's running wild and free He's a badlands refugee And he don't know wrong from right He's just chasing down his dreams He's a bit like me it seems Coyote
