Written by Bob McDill in the 1980s, "Coyotes" is a storytelling Americana ballad that serves as a tribute to the vanishing Old West. Through the eyes of an aged South Texas cowboy, the song explores the transition from a wild, open frontier to a world of "asphalt and steel," leaving only the coyotes as witnesses to the past. Featuring rich acoustic textures, haunting pedal steel, and the evocative harmony of coyote yips, The Flinns deliver a nostalgic yet timeless piece for fans of traditional country and folk storytelling.
