Facebook Instagram Twitter Lyrics: 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 did not shoot no deputy I shot the sheriff, but I did not shoot no deputy 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“ 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 offense 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, so I had to shoot him down I say I shot the sheriff, but I did not shoot no deputy I shot the sheriff, but I did not shoot no deputy Reflexes got the better of me And what will be, will be Every day the bucket goes to the 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 no deputy I shot the sheriff, but I did not shoot no deputy ************************************************************************** RHINO is the official YouTube channel of the greatest music catalog in the world.
