D                    G
Coyote's a survivor, I reckon he's got to be.

He lives in the snow at 40 below or Malibu by the sea.

An' I'm just an old cow puncher, I love to listen to his tune.
D                        G
Cause I get high on a bottle of rye an' Coyote gets drunk on the moon.

D                           G
Well the cowboy is a conundrum, a contradiction in this age,
D                         G
Well he says he's doin' fine on the poverty line with a workin' cowboy's wage.

Way down in the valley, at the old long noose saloon,

The cowboy got high on a bottle of rye, we got drunk on the moon.
