Yeah, ay-eh-yeah, yeah
Oh-hoh-hoh-hoh, yeah
Oh-hoh-hoh-hoh, oh, oh-whoa-hoh
Yeah-eh, yeah
They let me out on good behaviour
I guess that much time in the can does things to you, yeah
First thing I did was say a prayer
And told myself I'd change and be brand new
But I guess everywhere I go, trouble finds me
Won't leave me alone, stay behind me
So I paid for my drinks, kept my head down
Walked past him
Hands in my pocket like
♪
Ah, ay, ay-ay, yeah
You might have a point and yes
I should have run out and kept running, yeah
'Cause all I have is time, I know
But I'm so close to the edge
Suicidal thoughts
I'll be free when I'm gone
Aye, police officer
Won't you come around?
I think I shot a man down
Man down (yeah), man down
Same test and troubles
Tripped over my hurdles
And now I shot a man down
Man down, man down
Eh, man down, yeah, man down
Aye, police officer
Won't you come around? (Man down)
I think I shot a man down
Man down, man down
Mama told me (mama told me)
"Son, don't let them pull (man down) you down, it's all on you, eh"
She said, "Boy, you're not perfect
I know, I know, nobody is (man down)
It takes time, time to master all of these"
Same test and troubles
Tripped over my hurdles (man down)
Now I shot a man, now I
Now I shot a man down
She said, "Boy, you're not perfect
I know, I know, nobody is (man down)
It takes time, time to master all of these"
Same test and troubles
Tripped over my hurdles (man down)
Now I shot a man, now I
Now I shot a man down
She said, "Boy, you're not perfect (yeah)
I know (yeah), I know, nobody is (yeah)
It takes time (oh), time (takes time) to master all of these
Same test and troubles
Tripped over my hurdles (man down)
Now I shot a man down (ayy), man down
I let you down again
Girl, I'm goin' away (man down) from you (man down)
And if you could just find some place in your heart
To forgive me
'Cause woman, I'm guilty
Woman, I'm guilty
Woman, I'm guilty
