Man Down
RihannaBuy this song
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 'Cause 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! 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 Little 22, I call her Peggy Sue When she fits right down in my shoes Whatchu 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 its 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, aye uh 'Cause 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! Oh mama, mama, mama I just shot a man down In central station In front of a big ol' crowd Oh, why? Oh, why?

When mi pull the trigger, pull the trigger, pull it pon' you Somebody tell me what I'm gonna, what I'm gonna do?
