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
