I didn’t mean to end his life
I know it wasn’t right
I can’t even sleep at night
Can’t get it off my mind
I need to get out of sight
Before I end up behind bars
What started out as a simple altercation
Turned into a real sticky situation
Me just thinking on the time that I’m facing
Makes me wanna cry
Cause I didn’t mean to hurt him
Could a been somebody’s son
And I took his heart when
I pulled out that gun
Rum bum bum bum rum bum bum bum rum bum bum bum
Man down
Rum bum bum bum rum bum bum bum rum bum bum bum
Man down
Oh mama mama mama
I just shot a man down
In central station
In front of a big old crowd
Oh why oh why
Oh mama mama mama
I just shot a man down
I never thought I’d do it
Never thought I’d do it
Never thought I’d do it
Oh gosh
What ever happened to me
Ever happened to me
Ever happened to me
Why did I pull the trigger
Pull the trigger pull the trigger
BOOM
And end a man end a man’s life so soon
When me pull the trigger pull the trigger pull it on you
Somebody tell me what I’m gonna what I’m gonna do
Rum bum bum bum rum bum bum bum rum bum bum bum
Me say one man down (the one me say)
Rum bum bum bum rum bum bum bumm rum bum bum bum
When me went downtown
Cause now I’m a criminal criminal criminal
Oh lord a mercy now I am a criminal
Man down
Tell the judge please gimme minimal
Run out a town none of them can see mi now, see mi now
Oh mama mama mama
I just shot a man down
In central station
In front of a big old crowd
Oh why oh why
Oh mama mama mama
I just shot a man down
