Put It Down by Welton Irie Lyrics
[Intro]
Now, everywhere I go, a just pure guns, you know
But when di right time come
Nuff of dem have to run from di show (Hey)
[Chorus]
Seh, you fi put it down, gunman, put it down
Seh, you fi put it down, gunman, put it down
[Verse 1]
I seh fi, put down di magnum, put down di magnum
Put it down, gunman, put it down
Cah, me and sister Mag, we gone a market
I seh, a she was carrying the basket
I seh, we transport, then we have to walk it
Seh, gunman come, take we make target
But a miss, dem a miss, 'cause dem won't practice
Miss, dem a miss, 'cause dem won't practice
[Chorus]
Put it down gunman, put it down
Seh, you fi put it down gunman, put it down (Why)
[Verse 2]
Gun, it a no something fi you ramp with
I seh, di gun, it a no something fi you ramp with
Because a one kill me gal out a Linstead
Di boy weh use it right now him wanted
And everyday him a gwan like him haunted
But him skin soon burn him like acid
Because you no, check fi man who wicked (Do me)
[Chorus]
Put it down, gunman, put it down
Seh, you fi put it down, gunman, put it down
[Verse 3]
Because, one, a fi mi two, a fi mi hot cross bun
Sometime rain, and a sometime sun
Seh, all who come, and a muggle with gun
Jah know, dem go in bed like butter in sun
So, put it down, gunman, put it down (Why)
Me and sister Mag, we gone a market (Hey)
