Ward, Zhavia - Man Down Lyrics






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 'bout the time that I'm facing
Makes me wanna cry

'Cause I didn't mean to hurt him
Could've 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
Man down

Oh, mama, mama, mama
I just shot a man down
In central station
In front of a big ol' crowd
Oh oh
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 you expect 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

'Cause I didn't mean to hurt him
Could've 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
Man down

Mama, mama, mama
I just shot a man down
In central station
In front of a big ol' crowd
Oh oh
Oh, mama, mama, mama
I just shot a man down
In central station

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

Oh, mama, mama, mama
I just shot a man down
In central station
In front of a big ol' crowd
Oh oh
Oh, mama, mama, mama
I just shot a man down
In central station

Pull the trigger, pull the trigger, pull the trigger, boom

    She made the song 10x better

  5. G.... G....

    She is a star

  6. C.... L....

    I love her cute tiny lil self running around singing with no shoes with that big beautiful ass voice to match that big beautiful braid. Just iconic.

  7. O.... ....

    I just love Candice and Vincent’s reaction to her walking up to evie like that and then clapping for her afterwards.

  19. N.... P....

    I often see this in competitions, Great singers but awful at picking songs. The key of this song is way to low, sure she goes up sometimes and It sounds great, but lower parts sounds horrible.. Competitions like this, you can't just get away with singing good, you have to pick songs or at least transpose them so they fit your voice.. smh

  20. A.... G....

    Bro she sounds so bad like she she has vocal but her voice isn't good

  21. F.... F....

    Get you a man that looks at you like how Khaled looks at his popcorn 😂😂💀

  22. A.... P....

    Cultural appropriation? She’s a whole Blancita, 🤦‍♀️

  23. E.... B....

    Dj Khalid be like: We the best music!!!

  24. D.... H....

    Its shit she destroyed Rihanna's song fact ! Only suits riri ..

  25. J.... G....

    I come here every day to listen this masterpiece girl and her voice. Zhavia you are special,really. The way your singing and feeling songs is different something. You have a fire that full of desire to sing. That gives your singing speciality. Keep going on working hard until there is no one who fight with you. 💜

    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
    Could've been somebody's son
    And I took his heart when
    I pulled out that gun
    Rum, 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 ol' crowd
    Oh, why? Oh, why?
    Oh, mama, mama, mama
    I just shot a man down
    In central station
    It's a 22

    'Cause I didn't mean to hurt him
    Could've 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

    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 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
    Rum, pum, pum, pum rum, pum, pum, pum rum, pum, pum, pum
    Me say one man down (oh, what me say)
    Rum, pum, pum, pum rum, pum, pum, pum, rum, pum, pum, pum
    When we went downtown
    'Cause now I am a criminal, criminal, criminal
    Oh, Lord, have mercy now I am a criminal
    Man down

    Run out of town none of them can see me now
