Pigeon Song, The

by Ralph McTell

Coo coo coo coo come on little pigeon
Coo coo come on in
Coo coo coo coo come on little pigeon
Gonna listen to the rattle of the peas in the tin

Come on, come on all in

Oh what a long way you have flown
I bet that you were the first one home

Coo coo coo coo come on little pigeon
Coo coo come on in
Coo coo coo coo come on little pigeon
Gonna listen to the rattle of the peas in the tin

I am sure you must be tired
After such a long hard ride

Coo coo coo coo come on little pigeon
Coo coo come on in
Coo coo coo coo come on little pigeon
Gonna listen to the rattle of the peas in the tin

Don't you want to be the winner
Listen, it's your favourite dinner

Coo coo coo coo come on little pigeon
Coo coo come on in
Coo coo coo coo come on little pigeon
Gonna listen to the rattle of the peas in the tin
