Lyrics

Look at me coyote Don't let a little road dust put you off You can't judge a book Well, you know that stuff There's a tear in my upholstery And a hole in my shoe But don't you just wish that you could make half of the speed I do Speed I do, speed I do, speed I do Can't catch me coyote Though there may be blood on the tracks There may be some bridges burning Behind our backs But I got my laundry on the backseat And an itinerary too And don't you just wish that you could make half of the speed I do Speed I do, speed I do, speed I do Speed I do, speed I do, speed I do Now I'm a speck on your horizon Getting smaller fast An ambush wouldn't be surprising I hope it's better than your last Once again, the roadrunner leaves the coyote in the dirt You've got another plan of action, but we all know it ain't never gonna work It must be hard having dog dreams that never come true And don't you just with that you could make half of the speed I do Speed I do, speed I do, speed I do Speed I do, speed I do, speed I do
