Walk off the Earth - Man Down lyrics

[Walk off the Earth - Man Down lyrics]

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
Coulda 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 ol' crowd
Oh, why? Oh, why?
Oh, mama, mama, mama, I just shot a man down

Never thought I'd do it
I never thought I'd do it
Never thought I'd do it
Oh gosh, what ever happened to me
Whatever happened to me
Whatever happened to me?
Why did I pull the trigger
Pull the trigger, pull the trigger? Boom!
And end a man, end a man life so soon?
When mi pull the trigger, pull the trigger
Pull it pon' 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
Mi say wah man down (a weh mi say)
Rum bum bum bum, rum bum bum bum
Rum bum bum bum when mi went downtown
'Cause now I am a criminal, criminal
Criminal
Oh lord of mercy, now I am a criminal
Man Down
Tell the judge please, gimme minimal
Run out a town none a dem cah see me now
See me now

Oh, mama, mama, mama, I just shot a man down
In central station
In front of a big ol' crowd
Oh, why? Oh, why?
Oh, mama, mama, mama, I just shot a man down
