Lyrics - Pigeon Song by America

Written by dewey bunnell, ©1971
Found on america.
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
