Sally's Pigeons

A beautifull and very underated song about a childhood freindship. Growing up and growing apart. The song was co written with Mary Chapin Carpenter.

Some lines make me wonder what they are alluding to.

"In tears she told me she was late" (I wonder if this refers to her period being late ie she is pregant? Possibly to the "Someone shy and tall" boy?)

"Was lost from some back alley job" (Did she become a prostitute or was this just some horrible job?)
