I didnt mean to end his life
I know it wasnt right
I cant even sleep at night
Cant 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 im facing
Makes me wanna cry
Cause I didnt mean to hurt him
Coulda been somebodies 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 ol crowd
Oh Why Oh Why
Oh mama mama mama
I just shot a man down
In central station
Its a 22
I Call her peggy sue
When she fits right down in my shoes
What do you expect me to do
If youre playing me for a fool
I will lose my cool
And reach for my fire arm
I didnt mean to lay him down
But its too late to turn back now
dont know what I was thinking
Now hes no longer living
So imma bout to leave town
Cause I didnt mean to hurt him
Coulda been somebodies 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
