[00:26.400] Was a cowboy I knew in south Texas,
[00:31.400] His face was burnt deep by the sun,
[00:35.399] Part history, part sage, part mesquit,
[00:40.999] He was there when Poncho Villa was young.
[00:48.999] And he'd tell you a tale of the old days,
[00:54.999] When the country was wild all around,
[00:58.999] Sit out under the stars of the Milky Way,
[01:04.999] And listen while the coyotes howl.
[01:09.999] And they go... hoo yip hoo yip hoo
[01:14.49] hoodi hoo di yip hoo di yip hoo
[01:18.49] hoo yip hoo yip hoo
[01:25.199] hoo di hoo di yip hoo di yip hoo
[01:31.199] Now the long horns are gone,
[01:33.249] And the drovers are gone,
[01:36.249] The Comanches are gone,
[01:38.249] And the outlaws are gone,
[01:41.199] Geronimo is gone,
[01:43.199] And Sam Bass is gone,
[01:46.199] And the lion is gone,
[01:49.199] And the red wolf is gone.
[01:55.199] Well he cursed all the roads and the oil men,
[02:00.199] And he cursed the automobile,
[02:05.199] Said this is no place for an hombre like I am,
[02:11.200] In this new world of asphalt and steel.
[02:15.200] Then he'd look off some place in the distance,
[02:21.200] At something only he could see,
[02:25.200] He'd say all that's left now of the old days,
[02:32.200] Those damned old coyotes and me.
[02:37.200] And they go hoo yip hoo yip hoo
[02:42.200] hoodi hoo di yip hoo di yip hoo
[02:48.200] hoo yip hoo yip hoo
[02:52.200] hoo di hoo di yip hoo di yip hoo
[02:57.200] Now the long horns are gone,
[03:00.200] And the drovers are gone
[03:02.200] The Comanches are gone
[03:05.200] And the outlaws are gone,
[03:08.200] Now Quantro is gone,
[03:10.200] Stan Watie is gone,
[03:13.200] And lion is gone,
[03:15.200] And the red rolf is gone.
[03:22.200] One morning they searched his adobe,
[03:27.200] He disappeared without even a word,
[03:32.200] But that night as the moon crossed the mountain,
[03:39.200] One more coyote was heard.
[03:47.200] And he'd go, hoo yip hoo yip hoo
[03:52.200] hoodi hoo di yip hoo di yip hoo
[03:57.200] hoo yip hoo yip hoo
[04:02.200] hoo di hoo di yip hoo di yip hoo
[04:07.200] hoo yip hoo yip hoo
[04:12.200] hoodi hoo di yip hoo di yip hoo
[04:17.200] hoo yip hoo yip hoo
[04:22.200] hoo di hoo di yip hoo di yip hoo
