Ooh
7
All around in my hometown
8
They're tryin' to track me down
9
They say they want to bring me in guilty
10
For the life of a deputy
11
For the life of a deputy
12
But I say
13
I shot the sheriff
14
(But I swear it was in self-defense) I swear it was in self-defense, yeah
15
It was I shot the sheriff
16
And they say it is a capital offense
17
Sheriff John Brown always hated me
18
For what, I don't know
19
Every time I plant a seed
20
He said kill them before it grow

Freedom came my way one day
29
And I started out of town, yeah
30
Then all of a sudden I saw sheriff John Brown
31
He was aiming to shoot I down
32
So I shot, yes, I shot, shot him down
33
And I say
34
I-I-I-I shot the sheriff
35
Lord, I didn't shoot the deputy
36
(No, no, no)
37
It was I who shot the sheriff
38
But I didn't shoot the deputy
39
Reflexes had the better of me
40
And what is to be must be
41
Every day the bucket goes to the well
42
I say, one day the bottom a-go drop out
43
One day the bottom will drop out
44
And so
45
And so
46
Really sing
47
I shot the sheriff
48
But I didn't shoot the deputy
49
(No, no, no)
50
I shot the sheriff
51
But I didn't shoot the deputy
