| [00:21.000] |
Was a cowboy I knew in south Texas, |
| [00:26.000] |
His face was burnt deep by the sun, |
| [00:30.000] |
Part history, part sage, part mesquit, |
| [00:35.000] |
He was there when Poncho Villa was young. |
| [00:43.000] |
And he'd tell you a tale of the old days, |
| [00:49.000] |
When the country was wild all around, |
| [00:53.300] |
Sit out under the stars of the Milky Way, |
| [00:59.300] |
And listen while the coyotes howl. |
| [01:04.300] |
And they go... hoo yip hoo yip hoo |
| [01:08.350] |
hoodi hoo di yip hoo di yip hoo |
| [01:12.350] |
hoo yip hoo yip hoo |
| [01:18.300] |
hoo di hoo di yip hoo di yip hoo |
| [01:24.300] |
Now the long horns are gone, |
| [01:26.350] |
And the drovers are gone, |
| [01:29.350] |
The Comanches are gone, |
| [01:31.350] |
And the outlaws are gone, |
| [01:34.300] |
Geronimo is gone, |
| [01:36.300] |
And Sam Bass is gone, |
| [01:39.300] |
And the lion is gone, |
| [01:42.300] |
And the red wolf is gone. |
| [01:48.300] |
Well he cursed all the roads and the oil men, |
| [01:53.300] |
And he cursed the automobile, |
| [01:58.300] |
Said this is no place for an hombre like I am, |
| [02:04.300] |
In this new world of asphalt and steel. |
| [02:08.300] |
Then he'd look off some place in the distance, |
| [02:14.300] |
At something only he could see, |
| [02:18.300] |
He'd say all that's left now of the old days, |
| [02:25.300] |
Those damned old coyotes and me. |
| [02:30.300] |
And they go hoo yip hoo yip hoo |
| [02:35.300] |
hoodi hoo di yip hoo di yip hoo |
| [02:41.300] |
hoo yip hoo yip hoo |
| [02:45.300] |
hoo di hoo di yip hoo di yip hoo |
| [02:50.900] |
Now the long horns are gone, |
| [02:54.200] |
And the drovers are gone |
| [02:56.200] |
The Comanches are gone |
| [02:59.200] |
And the outlaws are gone, |
| [03:02.200] |
Now Quantro is gone, |
| [03:04.200] |
Stan Watie is gone, |
| [03:07.200] |
And lion is gone, |
| [03:09.200] |
And the red rolf is gone. |
| [03:16.200] |
One morning they searched his adobe, |
| [03:21.200] |
He disappeared without even a word, |
| [03:26.500] |
But that night as the moon crossed the mountain, |
| [03:33.500] |
One more coyote was heard. |
| [03:41.500] |
And he'd go, hoo yip hoo yip hoo |
| [03:46.500] |
hoodi hoo di yip hoo di yip hoo |
| [03:51.500] |
hoo yip hoo yip hoo |
| [03:56.500] |
hoo di hoo di yip hoo di yip hoo |
| [04:01.500] |
