I Shot the Sheriff

de Bob Marley

I shot the sheriff
But I didn't shoot the deputy
Oh, no, oh
I shot the sheriff
But I didn't shoot no deputy
Ooh, ooh (yeah)

All around in my own town
They're trying to track me down, yeah
They say they want to bring me in guilty
For the killing of a deputy
For the life of a deputy

But I say
Oh, now, now, oh
I shot the sheriff (the sheriff)
But I swear it was in self-defense (no, no)
Ooh, ooh, ooh (yeah, I said)
I shot the sheriff (oh, lord)
And they say it is a capital offense (oh now, yeah)
Ooh, ooh, ooh (yeah, hear this)

Sheriff John Brown always hated me
For what I don't know
Every time that I plant a seed
He said: Kill it before it grows
He said: Kill them before they grow
And so and so
Read it in the news

I shot the sheriff (oh, Lord)
But I swear it was in self-defense (where was the deputy)
Ooh, ooh, ooh (I said)
I shot the sheriff
But I swear it was in self-defense
Yeah (ooh)

Freedom came my way one day
And I started out of town
All of a sudden I saw sheriff John Brown
Aiming to shoot me down
So I shot, I shot him down

And I say
If I am guilty I will pay

I shot the sheriff (but I say)
But I didn't shoot no deputy (I didn't shoot no deputy, no)
Oh, no, oh
I shot the sheriff (I did)
But I didn't shoot the deputy (oh)
Ooh, ooh, ooh (yeah)

Reflexes had the better of me
And what is to be must be
Every day the bucket a-go-a well
But one day the bottom a-go drop out
Yes, one day the bottom a-go drop out

I say
I, I, I, I shot the sheriff
Lord, I didn't shoot the deputy, no
Yeah, I, I (shot the sheriff)
But I didn't shoot no deputy, yeah
So, yeah
