Rihanna - Man down lyrics

Your rating:

I didn't mean to end his life 
I know it wasn't right
Can't 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 I'm facing 
Makes me wanna cry 

'Cause I didn't mean to hurt him 
Coulda been somebodies son 
And I took his heart when 
I pulled up 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 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'mma bout to leave town, yeah

'Cause I didn't mean to hurt him 
Coulda been somebodies son 
And I took his heart when 
I pulled up 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 

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 niggas 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 

Rum pum pum pum
Rum pum pum pum
Rum pum pum pum 
They say one man down
Oh, they say
Rum pum pum pum
Rum pum pum pum
Rum pum pum pum 
And I ran 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 on the Grand seminal, seminal 

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
