Lyrics

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)

Seh, you fi put it down, gunman, put it down

Seh, you fi put it down, gunman, put it down

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

Put it down gunman, put it down

Seh, you fi put it down gunman, put it down (Why)

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)

Put it down, gunman, put it down

Seh, you fi put it down, gunman, put it down

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)

Transport, then we have to walk it (Hey)

A she did a carrying the basket (Hey)

Gunman take we make target

But a miss, dem a miss, because dem won't practice

Miss, dem a miss, because dem won't practice (So)

Put it down gunman, put it down

Gunman, put it down (Why)

Gun it is a dangerous weapon

I seh, di gun it is a dangerous weapon

And it posession, di owner carry wicked intention

So just, put down di magnum, put down di magnum

Put down di magnum and make we have fun (Hey)

Put down di magnum, put down di magnum

Put down di magnum and make we have fun

Cah, me and sister Mag, we gone a market

Cah, man, a she did have di food basket

I seh, fi transport, then we have fi walk it

Gunman take we make target

Seh, but a miss, dem a miss, because dem won't practice

Cah, miss, dem a miss, because dem won't practic (So just)

Put down di magnum, put down di magnum

Put down di magnum and make we have fun

Gun, it a no something fi you ramp with

Jah man, di gun, it a no something fi you ramp with

Because a it kill me gal outta Linstead

Di boy weh use it right now him wanted

And everyday him a run like him haunted

So just, put down di magnum, put down di magnum

Put it down gunman, put it down

I seh, fi put it down gunman, put it down
