Verse1
Mama, just killed a man, put a gun against his head,
pulled my trigger, now he's dead.
Mama, life had just begun, but now I've gone and
thrown it all away.
Mama, ooooh, didn't mean to make you cry.
If I'm not back again this time tomorrow, carry on, carry on
as if nothing really matters....
Verse2
Too late,my time has come, sends shivers down my spine,
body's aching all the time.
Goodbye, everybody, I've got to go, gotta leave you all
behind and face the truth.
Mama, ooooh I don't want to die,
I sometimes wish I'd never been born at all.
