Rihanna - Man Down
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
