Story Behind the Song
This song is dedicated to a young marine, lost in the desert.
Lyrics
Coyote, Coyote.
He finds himself alone every night, staring at the stars in the sky...
If enemies pursue him, he'll fight, fighting to the end, he may die,
Oh, Coyote!
Coyote, you and I are the same, surviving life the best that we can.
The animal inside me remains... You're a coyote, I'm a man...
Oh, Coyote!
We've got to run! We've got to hide! Sometimes we cry...
Oh, Coyote! (Guitar Bridge)
We live without the light of the sun; we're creatures of the night, you and me
and when at last the night has begun, we know the darkness sets us both free...
Oh, Coyote!
We do what we must to survive, while both of us must do it alone.
Our bravery may keep us alive, until our fate is finally known...
Oh, Coyote!
We've got to run! We've got to hide! Sometimes we cry...
Oh, Coyote! (Guitar Bridge)
We've got to stay on the move.
We've got to keep on runnin.. We've got to keep on hidin,
we've got to keep on runnin, keep on movin... (Fade)
