I didn't mean to lay 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 off of Zavé before I'm left behind bars
What started out as a simple altercation
Turned into a really sticky situation
Makes me think of all 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-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
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
He said 22, I call her Peggy Sue
And she fits right down in my shoes
What'd you expect me to do?
And if you played me for a fool
I would 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'll have to live without, yeah
'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-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
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
I never thought I'd do it
Never thought I'd do it
Never thought I'd do it, oh gosh
Whatever happened to me?
Ever happened to me?
Ever happened to me?
Why did I pull the trigga, pull the trigga, pull the trigga, boom?
And my niggas, and my niggas like so soon?
When me pull the trigga, pull the trigga, pull it pon' 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, is one man down? Yeah
Rum-pum-pum-pum, rum-pum-pum-pum
Rum-pum-pum-pum, then me went downtown
'Cause now I am a criminal, criminal
Oh Lord, have mercy, now I am a criminal
Man down, tell the judge please give me minimal
Run outta town, no one dem can see me now, yeah
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
