Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Well, I spend all day sittin' in the shade
Waitin' in my pickup truck
In not too long, a law man drives by
He stops to see what's up
So I had to pull on over and give my eyes a break
"You're a busy man, nothin' to see here"
So I send him on his way
I see his taillights fadin' and I grab my glass of tea
Truth is, my name's Roy Johnson
Coyote is my trade
[Instrumental]
Not five minutes later
A mesquite bush starts shakin' like it was afraid
Fifteen men, women, and children
Jumped in the back of my Chevrolet
Saw them tremblin' in my rearview mirror
Through my Aviator shades
Said, "Me llamo Roy Johnson
And coyote is my trade"
[Chorus]
'Cause you won't hear me comin'
And you won't see my face
I cut that trail a thousand times
All without a trace
It's my line of business
No, it ain't a pretty thing
My name is Roy Johnson
Coyote is my trade
[Verse 2]
I did what my mama told me
I got my four-year degree
Now I'm an expert in logistics
I get product from A to B
No, I don't cut no corners
I've always got a plan
If you're lookin' for my services
Amigo, I'm your man
I'll get you across that Rio
Welcome to the USA
Tip the hat, say the name's Roy Johnson
Coyote is my trade
[Chorus]
No, you won't hear me comin'
And you won't see my face
Well, I cut that trail a thousand times
All without a trace
It's my line of business
No, it ain't no pretty thing
My name is Roy Johnson
Coyote is my trade
Hey, hey
[Instrumental]
Well, I clearly remember
Like it was yesterday
I had that Chevy parked right under
My usual spot of shade
Not five minutes later
A mesquite bush started shakin' like it was afraid
Fifteen federale jumped out
And they all knew my name
[Chorus]
I guess they saw me comin'
They saw my face
And I cut that trail a thousand times
Guess I left a trace
It's my line of business
And I ain't ashamed to say
My name is Roy Johnson
Coyote is my trade
Hey, hey
[Outro]
Now I spend all day sittin' in the shade
Waitin' in my pickup truck
