Good Man Down Lyrics

[First Verse]
Here is a story about a boy and a girl
She woke up one morning felt alone in this world
Despite the love for her
He couldn't keep her from leaving again
She had to do it

She cried in the nights, he brought her flowers in the daytime
She tried and she tried to forget the past and all her past crimes
Despite the love for her
He couldn't keep her from leaving again
She had to do it

[Chorus]
How could you shoot a good man down and leave without mourning?
Broken-hearted on the ground, like the others bid for him
Burden as heavy as a rock, ain't nobody going to stop her
Go ahead and walk alone, and regret it some else where

[Second Verse]
He cried in the nights, she got no flowers in the daytime
He gave up the fight while she was out committing new crimes
Despite the love for her
He couldn't keep her from leaving again She had to do it

[Chorus]
How could you shoot a good man down and leave without mourning?
Broken-hearted on the ground, like the others bid for him
Burden heavy as a rock, ain't nobody going to stop her
Go ahead and walk alone, and regret it some else where

Burden as heavy as a rock, ain't nobody going to stop her
Go ahead and walk alone, and regret it some else where

[Chorus]
How could you shoot a good man down and leave without mourning?
Broken-hearted on the ground, like the others bid for him
Burden heavy as a rock, ain't nobody going to stop her
Go ahead and walk alone, and regret it some else where

Burden heavy as a rock, ain't nobody going to stop her
Go ahead and walk alone, and regret it some else where

[Outro]
How could you leave without mourning
Unlike the others bid for me?
