Coyote Blue
Performer(s): Bruce Cockburn



Here comes coyote sniffing down the trail
dodging pools of moonlight cool and pail
blue darkness and yellow light
raging after all thats in the spiny desert night
Coyote Blue, coming after you
Coyote Blue, coming after you
Used to have a jacket, used to have a tie
Must have left them somewhere in the course of passing by
hey thats me down there with my tail stuck out behind
if I don't catch you soon I'm gonna go out of my mind
Coyote Blue, coming after you
Coyote Blue, coming after you
There's all these points of contact to explore
there's a hunger in the bones that's calling more
there's life leaping forward with a roar
there's alot of tricks been played a billion times before
But this trick is what is happening got to play it as it lays
got to keep your wits about you, its an ever shifting maze
hear the scratch of paws on gravel, hear the panting in the grass
hear the happy goofball howl and come on meet me at the pass
Coyote Blue, coming after you
