Pigeon Song

Well, I had me a pigeon by the name of Fred

But I done shot him in the head

Had me a railroad down on the ridge

But I done blowed up the bridge

Had me a dog, he was my best friend

But to him, I done put an end

Had me a farm sittin' pretty on the hill

But if you look, you'll see it ain't there still

I don't know why I done it

Honest, it ain't like me

But I ain't sad now I done it

'Cause a baby boy has got to be free
