I Shot Your Dog

Fred Eaglesmith

Hello, neighbour

I've been meaning to talk to you

I've been putting it off

Somethin' I got to do

I've been living with a secret

That keep me awake

There's just somethin'

I got to say

I shot your dog

He was on my property

Thought he was a coyote on the run

I've been missing some chickens

So I pulled the trigger

I feel so bad 'bout what I'd done

You don't have to say nothin'

I could tell how you feel

I'd feel the same if it was me

I'm awfully sorry

If I could make it up to you

In any old way

Tell me what to do

I shot your dog

He was on my property

Thought he was a coyote on the run

I've been missing some chickens

So I pulled the trigger

I feel so bad 'bout what I'd done

Got an old coon hound

If it'll make you feel better

She coming in next week

You get the pick of the litter

I shot your dog

He was on my property

Thought he was a coyote on the run

I've been missing some chickens

So I pulled the trigger

I feel so bad 'bout what I'd done

I feel so bad 'bout what I'd done
