Man Down

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 all the time that im facing,

Makes me wanna cry

Cause I didn't mean to hurt him,

Could've 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

In central station

It's a 22,

I Call her peggy sue

When she fits right down in my shoes,

What do you expect me to do

If you're playing me for a fool,

I will lose my pool,

And reach for my fire arm.

I didn't mean to lay him down

But its too late to turn back now,

Don't know what I was thinking

Now he's no longer living,

So i'm 'bout to leave town

yeah,

Cause I didn't mean to hurt him

Could've been somebody's son

And I took his heart when

I pulled up 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,

In central station

Look 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 [...] end a [...] life so soon,

When I pull the trigger, pull the trigger, pull it on you

Somebody tell me what i'm gonna what i'm gonna do,

And I ran downtown

Cause now i'm criminal, criminal, criminal,

Run out of town,

None of them can see me now, see me now

In central station,

In front of a big old crowd

Oh Why, Oh Why
