Earth-Angel Posted December 5, 2004 Report Share Posted December 5, 2004 I believe the song you're after is: Pigeon song by America 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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

_jr_ Posted December 5, 2004 Report Share Posted December 5, 2004 (Eloise, Eloise, Eloise, Eloise) (Who is the little girl who Top40db.com Top40db.net Top40db.org. Lives in the Plaza in New York) That`s me, Eloise, I`m six I live on the top floor (Who is the little girl who knows Everybody`s business in New York) I spend an enormous Amount of time in the lobby I have to see what`s going on there (Who`s on the telephone most of the day) I have to call room service a lot And tell them to charge it, please And thank you very much (Who`s in and out and up and Down and in everybody`s way) That`s what Mr. Salamoney says And he ought to know He`s the manager, for Lord`s sake (Who`s up at break of day Creating a terrible racket in the halls) Sometimes I take two sticks And skitter them along the woodwork (Who has a lovely way of writing Her name in lipstick on the walls) My mother is thirty And wears a three and a half shoe (Who`s the little darling who`ll Drive you out of your head But you love her just the same) After all, I`m only six (Who`s the little girl who`s Only good when she`s in bed Eloise is her name) That`s me, Eloise (Eloise, Eloise, Eloise, Eloise) (Eloise) that`s Nanny She`s my nurse, she`s English And wears tissue paper in her dress And you can hear it (Eloise, what are you doing) Here`s the thing of it I have to open that window wider Because there`s this pigeon who Keeps hanging around out there And I`m gonna squonk him in his head Your's is the right version, but this one is similar. It was the first one I found, so I ran with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Earth-Angel Posted December 5, 2004 Report Share Posted December 5, 2004 Oh, Kay Thompson + Eloise + lyrics brings up this only: Ev'ry night I'm there I'm always there she knows I'm there And heaven knows I hope she goes I find it hard to realize that love was in her eyes It's dying now, she knows I'm crying now And ev'ry night I'm there I break my heart to please Eloise, Eloise You know I'm on my knees - yeah I said please You're all I want so haer my prayer My Eloise is like the stars that please the night The sun that makes the day, that lights the way And when that star goes by I'll hold it in my hands and cry Her love is mine, my sun will shine And ev'ry night I'm there I break my heart to please Eloise, Eloise You know I'm on my knees - yeah I said please You're all I want so haer my prayer My Eloise, I'd love to please her I'd love to care but she's not there And when I find you, I'd be so kind You'd want to stay, I know you'd stay And as the days grow old, the nights crow cold I wanna hold her near to me, I know she's dear to me And only time can tell and take away this lonely hell I'm on my knees to Eloise And ev'ry night I'm there I break my heart to please Eloise, Eloise You know I'm on my knees - yeah I said please You're all I want so haer my prayer You know I'm on my knees I said please You're all I want so hear my prayer I'm confused now. Perhaps it is 'pick on me' night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
