Now, everywhere I go, a just pure guns, you know
But when di right time come

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

And everyday him a gwan like him haunted
But him skin soon burn him like acid

[Chorus]
Put it down, gunman, put it down
Seh, you fi put it down, gunman, put it down

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)

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

And it posession, di owner carry wicked intention
