about

The song has several meanings. A parent says goodbye to their child who is leaving for a better life. One culture looks up, bays at the moon and lies down to receive its sleep.

lyrics

ONE OLD COYOTE
Stuart Pearson

Our planets collided
Throwing heat like the sun
This never could happen
Then never did come
There's one old coyote
He looks up and bays at the moon
Oooo

I still believe in you
I swear I believe
And though it seems
I swear I believe
And one old coyote
Calls from the ravine
Oooo

How can I be angry
At the passage of time
You want what your heart wants
And leave memories behind
And one old coyote
Looks up and entreats the moon
Oooo

I still believe in you
I swear I believe
Though you won't return to me
I'll choose to believe
And one old coyote
Lies down to receive his sleep
Oooo

"Dark Americana 2: Mohave" reflects the desert: dark folk, rustic, dangerous, in ruins and foreboding; breathing hallucinatory American mythology.
