A COWBOY AN D COYOTE
A cowboy an
d a coyote
Way out on the western prairie
The cowboy sat a -smokin'
And a -dreamin' about his Mary
The coyote started howlin'
With his nose pointin' to the moon
For a while the cowboy listened,
then I heard him sing this tune
You're a nice little coyote,
you prowl around
and howl around the moon all night
You're a sharp little fel la,
you bellow out
and yell about until the light
And you always sound so lonesome,
you make me a little bit blue
But I ain't got time for prowlin'
Or a -do a little howlin' too
Go away, little critter
Yelpin' ain't a -helpin'
me to hit the sack
Get along, little vomit
I'll pick me up a -stickin' up
and whack your back
If you don't cut out that yappin'
How can I get any nappin' done?
So go easy on the screamin'
While I do a little dreamin'
About my only one
Go away, little critter,
yelpin' ain't a -helpin'
me to hit the sack
Get along, little varmint,
I'll pick me up a -stickin'
up and whack your back
If you don't cut out that yappin',
how can I get any nappin' done?
So go easy on the screamin'
while I do a little dreamin' about
my only one
Let me dream about my only one.
