America is an English-American folk rock band, that originally consisted of Gerry Beckley, Dewey Bunnell and Dan Peek. The three members were barely out of their teens, when they became a musical sensation during 1972, scoring No. 1 hits and winning a Grammy for best new musical artist. Their recording success stretched throughout the 1970s; some of the band's best known songs are "A Horse with No Name", "Sister Golden Hair" (both of which reached No. 1), "Ventura Highway", "Tin Man", "Daisy Jane", and "Lonely People". George Martin produced seven of their albums. more »

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
