I Shot The Sheriff歌词

[00:00.31]I shot the sheriff
[00:02.31]but I did not shoot the deputy
[00:10.51]I shot the sheriff
[00:13.89]but I did not shoot the deputy
[00:21.51]All around in my home town
[00:25.77]they're trying to track me down
[00:30.64]They say they want to bring me in guilty
[00:35.58]for the killing of a deputy
[00:40.45]for the life of a deputy
[00:45.01]But I say
[00:52.27]I shot the sheriff
[00:55.51]but I swear it was in self-defence
[01:02.21]I shot the sheriff
[01:05.71]and they say it is a capital offence
[01:13.46]Sheriff John Brown always hated me
[01:17.96]for what I don't know
[01:23.02]Every time that I plant a seed
[01:27.95]he said 'Kill it before it grows'
[01:32.83]He said 'Kill it before it grows'
[01:37.14]But I say

[01:47.58]but I swear it was in self-defence
[01:54.43]I shot the sheriff
[01:57.90]but I swear it was in self-defence
[02:05.54]Freedom came my way one day
[02:10.29]and I started out of town
[02:15.54]All of a sudden I see sheriff John Brown
[02:21.04]aiming to shoot me down
[02:24.67]so I shot I shot him down

[02:43.37]but I did not shoot the deputy
[02:50.05]I shot the sheriff
[02:53.55]but I did not shoot the deputy
[03:01.30]Reflexes got the better of me
[03:06.36]and what is to be must be
[03:11.12]Every day the bucket goes to well
[03:16.05]but one day the bottom wuill drop out
[03:21.05]yes one day the bottom will drop out
[03:25.24]But I say

[03:35.55]but I did not shoot the deputy
