I Shot The Sheriff 가사

I shot the sheriff, But I did not shoot no deputy All around in my old town They're trying to track me down They say they want me in and guilty For the life of a deputy But I say I shot the sheriff, But I did not shoot no deputy Sheriff John Brown always sent to me For what I don't know Every time I plant a seed He says "kill them before they grow" But I say I shot the sheriff, But I did not shoot no deputy Freedom came my way one day And I started out of town Then all of a sudden I saw sheriff John Brown He was aiming to shoot I down So I shot, I shot him down 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 offense Reflexes are the better of me And what is to be must to be Every day the bucket goes to the well And I say one day the bucket will drop out
