Nils Landgren - Funk Unit - House Party

I woke up this morning
Without a song in my head
The alarm was wiz-banging
I had to get out of bed

The night was cold and still
And wrapped around the moon
If I had my druthers brother
I would have stayed in bed til noon

But I decided to greet the day
And all that it would bring
I looked out in the dark yard
And there a coyote stood

He had the coyote blues
And passed them along my way
He had the coyote blues
Looks like they’re here to stay

It was cold as a bitter root
The poor fella moved so slow
It was like an old dog I knew
With no place left to go

Lord I felt bad for him and
For a moment thought I’d try
To see if he would be my friend
But something changed my mind

In the end I looked at him
And said good luck my friend
I appreciate you giving me
The coyote blues again
