El Coyote Lyrics - Kris Kristofferson

They call him a bandit 

And you know the notches 

That he ought to wear on his gun 

He sees you through eyes 

He's partially blinded from staring too long at the sun 

But he's true to his school and he's nobody's fool 

And he's lucky to still be alive, the wolf pack will die 

When it's scattered by man, lonesome coyotes survive 

He buried his feelings and life was a mountain 

That he was determined to climb 

Then he caught the scent of a sister in spirit 

Who taught him to love her in time

Somehow or other, she gathered together 

The cubs that he sired on the way and they run by his side 

Through the chill hungry night 

And they sleep to his sweet serenade 

There's a part of his heart up in heaven 

And a part that will always be wild 

And all he can leave them is love and a reason 

To run for the rest of their lives, lonesome coyotes survive

And all he can leave them is love and a reason
