Intro: G--C--G--C

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.
