LYRICS
BOB MARLEY; I SHOT THE SHERIFF
chorus;
I SHOT THE SHERIFF
BUT I DID NOT SHOOT THE DEPUTY
I SHOT THE SHERIFF
BUT I DIDN'T SHOOT THE DEPUTY
YOU SEE
ALL AROUND IN MY HOME TOWN
THEY ARE TRYING TO TRACK ME DOWN
THEY SAY THEY WANT TO BRING ME IN GUILTY
FOR THE LIFE OF A DEPUTY
FOR THE LIFE OF A DEPUTY
I SHOT THE SHERIFF
BUT I SWEAR IT WAS IN SELF DEFENSE
I SHOT THE SHERIFF
AND THEY SAY IT IS A CAPITOL OFFENSE
chorus
FREEDOM CAME MY WAY ONE DAY
AND I STARTED OUT OF TOWN
THEN ALL OF THE SUDDEN I SAY SHERIFF JOHN BROWN
HE WAS AIMING TO SHOOT ME DOWN
SO I SHOT YES I SHOT
SHOT HIM DOWN
I SHOT THE SHERIFF
BUT I DIDN'T SHOOT NO DEPUTY
REFLEXES ARE THE BETTER OF ME
AND WHAT IS TO BE MUST BE
EVERYDAY THE BUCKET GOES TO THE WELL
ONE DAY THE BOTTOM OF THE TROUBLE
ONE DAY THE BOTTOM OF THE TROUBLE
chorus
I SAY SHERIFF JOHN BROWN DID NOT LIKE ME
FOR WHAT I DON'T KNOW
EVERY TIME I PLANT A SEED
HE SAY KILL THEM BEFORE THEY GROW
STOMP THEM BEFORE THEY GROW
I COULDN'T STAND IT NO MORE
IF I AM GUILTY I WILL PAY
