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
