El Coyote Guy Clark
[Verse 1]
[C]In the town of Rey[G]nosa, there's a b[C]eautiful ri[F]ver
That s[C]hines in the [G]Mexico s[C]un
[C]There are boats and they cr[G]oss from one s[C]ide to the [F]other
At d[C]usk when the [G]hot day is d[C]one
[C]From there to Ac[G]una to [C]Del Rio, Te[F]xas
You [C]valley up thr[G]ough San Ant[C]one
[C]With the pesos I[G]'ve sav[C]ed up for y[F]ears then I'll trade
For [C]the chance to[G] send dollar[C]s back home
[Cborus]
[F]Coyote, coyote, que hici[C]ste cabron?
[G]Coyote, man what have you do[C]ne?
You [F]took all our money and l[C]eft us to die
In the [G]heat of the South Texas s[C]un
Co[G]yote, que hiciste cabro[C]n?
[Verse 2]
[C]He steps out of the [G]shadows, he wo[C]n't look in my[F] eyes
His h[C]and's out to [G]take all I've[C] got
[C]He says that he's [G]smuggled a thousa[C]nd good men[F]
And he[C] says that he[G]'s never been c[C]aught
[C]So with seventeen [G]other, bra[C]ceros like [F]cattle
Packed[C] in for that [G]long final r[C]ide
[C]In the semi-truck [G]crossing the b[C]order it's [F]dark
And it[C]'s hot as an [G]oven ins[C]ide
[Cborus]
[F]Coyote, coyote, que hici[C]ste cabron?
[G]Coyote, man what have you do[C]ne?
You [F]took all our money and l[C]eft us to die
In the [G]heat of the South Texas s[C]un
Co[G]yote, que hiciste cabro[C]n?
[Verse 3]
[C]The braceros[G] are asking in [C]whispers[F]
Why th[C]e truck stopped in the h[G]eat of the d[C]ay?
[C]At first sign of t[G]rouble, he's left[C] us all the[F]re
By the[C] road and he's w[G]alking a[C]way
[Cborus]
[F]Coyote, coyote, que hici[C]ste cabron?
[G]Coyote, man what have you do[C]ne?
You [F]took all our money and l[C]eft us to die
In the [G]heat of the South Texas s[C]un
Co[G]yote, que hiciste cabro[C]n?
