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
pre
’cause i didn’t mean to hurt him
coulda been somebody’s son
and i took his heart when
i pulled out that gun
rumpumpumpum rumpumpumpum rumpumpumpum
man down
rumpumpumpum rumpumpumpum rumpumpumpum
man down

i just shot a man down
in central station
in front of a big ol’ crowd
oh why

oh mama mama mama
i just shot a man down
in central station
it’s a twentytwo 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 firearm
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 ayyuh
