I shot the sheriff but I did not shoot the deputy I shot the sheriff but I did not shoot the deputy All around in my home town they''re trying to track me down They say they want to bring me in guilty for the killing of a deputy, for the life of a deputy But I say I shot the sheriff but I swear it was in self defence I shot the sheriff and they say it is a capital offence 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 it before it grows'' But say I I shot the sheriff but I swear it was in self defence I shot the sheriff but I swear it was in self defence Freedom came my way one day and I started out of town All of a sudden I see sheriff John Brown aiming to shoot me down so I shot, I shot him down But I say I shot the sheriff but I did not shoot the deputy I shot the sheriff but I did not shoot the deputy Reflexes got the better of me and what is to be,
I Shot The Sheriff
Bob Marley
I shot the sheriff but I did not shoot the deputy I shot the sheriff but I did not shoot the deputy All around in my home town they''re trying to track me down They say they want to bring me in guilty for the killing of a deputy, for the life of a deputy But I say I shot the sheriff but I swear it was in self defence I shot the sheriff and they say it is a capital offence 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 it before it grows'' But say I I shot the sheriff but I swear it was in self defence I shot the sheriff but I swear it was in self defence Freedom came my way one day and I started out of town All of a sudden I see sheriff John Brown aiming to shoot me down so I shot, I shot him down But I say I shot the sheriff but I did not shoot the deputy I shot the sheriff but I did not shoot the deputy Reflexes got the better of me and what is to be,
