Karaoké Man Down (Version album) Rihanna

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 on the time that I'm facing makes me wanna cry

'Cos 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 rum 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 old crowd

Oh why, oh why

Oh mama mama mama

I just shot a man down in central...

Little twenty two I call her

Peggy Sue when she fits right

Down in my shoes what 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'm 'bout to leave town hey

'Cos 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

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

Well I hear me now

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 nigga life so soon

When me pull the trigger pull the trigger pull it pon you

Somebody tell me what I'm gonna what I'm gonna do

Hey rum bum bum bum rum bum bum bum rum bum bum bum me say wah man down, a weh me say

Rum bum bum bum rum bum bum bum rum bum bum bum then me went downtown

'Cos now I am a criminal criminal criminal

Oh lord have mercy now I am a criminal

Man down, tell the judge please gimme minimal

Run out a town none a dem can 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

In central station
