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-defense
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 I say

I shot the sheriff but I swear it was in self-defense
I shot the sheriff but I swear it was in self-defense

Freedom came my way one day
And I started out of town, yeah
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, must be
Everyday the bucket goes to well
But one day the bottom will drop out
Yes, one day the bottom will drop out, but I say

I shot the sheriff but I did not shoot the deputy
I shot the sheriff but I did not shoot no deputy







I Shot the Sheriff

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-defense
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 I say

I shot the sheriff but I swear it was in self-defense
I shot the sheriff but I swear it was in self-defense

Freedom came my way one day
And I started out of town, yeah
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, must be
Every day the bucket goes to well
But one day the bottom will drop out
Yes, one day the bottom will drop out, but I say

I shot the sheriff but I did not shoot the deputy
I shot the sheriff but I did not shoot no deputy
