about

Dom Coyote is a dreamer, an adventurer who traveled the world and made his dream come true.

lyrics

I can dream like Rip Van Winkle
Countin' sheep for twenty years
I can dream of Jeannie
With the light brown hair
I can dream like Walter Mitty
In my cab on the Lower East Side
But I can't dream like Dom Coyote
Dom Coyote's born to ride
No I can't dream like Dom Coyote
Dom Coyote's born to ride

He was born a son of a tailor
He came from Florence, Italy
On his passport read Dominic Ciotti
'Til he got to the land of the free

He traveled west to find his fortune
Like many a young man had done
To the prairie of North Dakota
Where the Lakota Sioux and buffalo run

In his satchel he was bearin'
The spices from his native land
To cook a feast for old Chief Lakota
In exchange for his daughter's hand

The chief asked him,
"Son what's your name?"
He took the passport from his hand
And he pronounced him Dom Coyote
He said, "Welcome to our land."

Dom Coyote, Dom Coyote, Dom Coyote

It was early the next mornin'
Down by the adobe stove
Stokin' fire 'n' boilin' water
And choppin' a garlic clove

Now the braves were gettin' hungry
And the wine goin' to their heads
They smelled fried peppers and lasagne
And that fresh Italian bread

The Chief was chompin' and smilin'
Then he stood and looked in his eyes
He told the braves to fetch his daughter
And he handed Dom Coyote his prize

Dom Coyote, Dom Coyote, Dom Coyote
Dom Coyote, Dom Coyote, Dom Coyote

Bluegrass Police Los Angeles, California

In the summer of 1986, in the hills of Pennsylvania, the Bluegrass Police were born. In pursuit of Hilarity the BGP poke fun at human behavior by touching on topics of racism, sterotypes, segregation, poverty, sexuality, brutality, domestic tension, etc. They poke fun at these human phenomena all the while denouncing the abuses. It is truly clever poetry crafted by Robert Gabig and Jack Bishop. ... more
