Joan Baez and Coyote

Anyone out there ever heard a song recorded by Joan Baez that talks about a sad coyote? Here are the only words I remember: Now I know how coyote feels-Howling just to ease the pain since you went away. I'm looking for the music and/or lyrics. Can any of you J.B. fans help?

L.F.M., I guess you are looking for the song I "copy&paste"d from this site.

@SONG: Tumbleweed (3:32) (Douglas Van Arsdale)

I feel like a lonesome tumbleweed rolling across an open plain, I feel like something nobody needs I feel my life drifting away, drifting away -

I feel like a broken wagon wheel when I can't hop a slow-moving train Think I know how a coyote feels when he's howling just to ease the pain, since he's been away.

Lord, I feel like rolling, rolling along, so keep your big wind blowing till all my natural days are gone - till my days are all gone.

I'm just a lonesome tumbleweed turning end over end. Once I pulled all my roots free I became a slave to the wind, a slave to the wind.

FYI...Bill Staines has a beautiful song "coyote" on his Sandstone Cathedrals.

Hello to everyone. I would like to have the lyrics from the song "Tumbleweed" sung by Joan Baez. She didnt write it, that is the only thing I know. Thank you very much.

There's a reference to a "Lone Coyote" in the song "Welcome me(To The City Of Angels") Written by by the Indigo Girls. Fairly recent song,though. It's on Ring Them Bells
