Esta copla es a tu salud camarada

Was a cowboy I knew in south Texas
His face was burnt deep by the sun
His part history, part sage, part mesquit
He was there when Pancho Villa was young

And he'd tell you a tale of the old days
When the country was wild all around
Sit out under the stars of the Milky Way
And it´s listen while the coyotes howl

And they go... poo yip poo yip poo
poodi hoo di yip poo di yip poo
poo yip poo yip poo
poodi hoo di yip poo di yip poo

Now the long horns are gone
And the drovers are gone
The Comanche's are gone
And the outlaws are gone
Geronimo is gone
And Sam Bass is gone
And the Red Wolf is gone
And the Buffalo is gone

Well he cursed all the roads and the oil men
Even cursed the automobile
Said this is no place for an hombre like I am
In this new world of asphalt and steel

Then he'd look off some place in the distance
At something only he could see
And he'd say all that's left now of the old days
Those damned old coyotes and me

And they go poo yip poo yip poo
poodi hoo di yip poo di yip poo
poo yip poo yip poo
poodi hoo di yip poo di yip poo

Now the long horns are gone
And the drovers are gone
The Comanche's are gone
And the outlaws are gone
Now Quantro is gone
Stan Watie is gone
And the Red Wolf is gone
And the Buffalo is gone

One morning they searched his adobe
He disappeared without even a word
But that night as the moon crossed the mountain
One more coyote was heard

And he'd go, poo yip poo yip poo
poodi hoo di yip poo di yip poo
poo yip poo yip poo
poodi hoo di yip poo di yip poo

poo yip poo yip poo
poodi hoo di yip poo di yip poo
poo yip poo yip poo
poodi hoo di yip poo di yip poo

Fantástico tema Paco, y un alegato conservacionista en toda regla.

Aquí con subtítulos en castellano.

Mil grácias Camarada por éste tema y por su significado que sé que no soy el único que se identifica y que a siente que ha nacido un siglo tarde.
Salud y pólvora!!!!!!!

Preciosa canción,si señor.
Un saludo.

Querido Johny, teníamos que haber nacido en la época del "Wild West" .

Un abrazo

Precioso tema. Coincido plenamente con el espíritu de esta bonita canción.
Johnny, no estás solo en ese convencimiento. Yo hubiera preferido esa época y esa tierra, tan salvaje como bella.

Saludos desde Sevilla.

Precioso tema compañero. Yo también siento una especie de atracción hacia esa época y hacia ese lugar.

Gracias por traerlo auí.
