Man Down

Lyrics

Sak Pasé
 I didn't mean to end his life
 I know it wasn't right
 I can't even sleep at night
 I can't get it off my mind
 I need to get out of sight
 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've been somebody's son
 And I took his heart when
 I pulled out that gun
 Rum-pum-pum-pum
 Rum-pum-pum-pum
 Rum-pum-pum-pum
 Man down
 Rum-pum-pum-pum
 Rum-pum-pum-pum
 Rum-pum-pum-pum
 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 playin' me for a fool
 I will lose my cool
 And reach for my firearm
 I didn't mean to lay him down
 But it's 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 out that gun
 Rum-pum-pum-pum
 Rum-pum-pum-pum
 Rum-pum-pum-pum
 Man down
 Rum-pum-pum-pum
 Rum-pum-pum-pum
 Rum-pum-pum-pum
 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 (well hear me now)
 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 nigga, end a nigga 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-pum-pum-pum
 Rum-pum-pum-pum
 Rum-pum-pum-pum
 Me say one man down
 Oh, let me say
 Rum-pum-pum-pum
 Rum-pum-pum-pum
 Rum-pum-pum-pum
 When me went downtown
 'Cause now I'm a criminal, criminal, criminal
 Oh Lord, oh, mercy now, I am a criminal
 Man down
 Tell the judge please give me minimal
 Run out of town
 None of them can see me now, see me 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
 In central station
