Zhavia Ward - 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
'Fore I end up behind bars

What started out as a simple altercation
Turned into a real sticky situation
Me just thinking 'bout 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 ol' crowd
Oh oh
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 you expect to do
If you're playing me for a fool
I will lose my cool
And reach for my fire arm

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

'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

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

Pull the trigger
Pull the trigger, pull the trigger, boom
Pull the trigger
Pull the trigger, pull the trigger, boom
Pull the trigger
Pull the trigger, pull it pon' you
Somebody tell me what I'm gonna
What I'm gonna do?

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

Pull the trigger
Pull the trigger, pull the trigger, boom
