《I Shot The Sheriff》歌词

[00:00:00] (I shot the sheriff

[00:00:04] But I didn't shoot no deputy, oh no! Oh!

[00:00:10] I shot the sheriff

[00:00:14] But I didn't shoot no deputy, ooh, ooh, oo-ooh.)

[00:00:21] Yeah! All around in my home town,

[00:00:26] They're tryin' to track me down;

[00:00:31] They say they want to bring me in guilty

[00:00:35] For the killing of a deputy,

[00:00:40] For the life of a deputy.

[00:00:45] But I say

[00:00:46] Oh, now, now. Oh!

[00:00:52] (I shot the sheriff) the sheriff.

[00:00:56] (But I swear it was in self defense.)

[00:00:59] Oh, no! (Oh, oh, oh) Yeah!

[00:01:01] I say: I shot the sheriff oh, Lord!

[00:01:06] (And they say it is a capital offense.)

[00:01:10] Yeah! (oh, oh, oh) Yeah!

[00:01:13] Sheriff John Brown always hated me,

[00:01:18] For what, I don't know,

[00:01:23] Every time I plant a seed,

[00:01:28] He said kill it before it grow,

[00:01:33] He said kill them before they grow.

[00:01:37] And so

[00:01:38] Read it in the news:

[00:01:44] (I shot the sheriff.) Oh, Lord!

[00:01:48] (But I swear it was in self-defense.)

[00:01:51] Where was the deputy? (oh)

[00:01:54] I say, I shot the sheriff,

[00:01:58] But I swear it was in self defense. (oh) Yeah!

[00:02:05] Freedom came my way one day

[00:02:10] And I started out of town, yeah!

[00:02:16] All of a sudden I saw sheriff John Brown

[00:02:21] Aiming to shoot me down,

[00:02:25] So I shot, I shot, I shot him down and I say:

[00:02:31] If I am guilty I will pay.

[00:02:40] (I shot the sheriff,)

[00:02:42] But I say (But I didn't shoot no deputy),

[00:02:50] (I shot the sheriff.) I did!

[00:02:54] But I didn't shoot no deputy. Oh! (oh)

[00:03:01] Reflexes had got the better of me

[00:03:06] And what is to be must be,

[00:03:11] Every day the bucket a-go a well,

[00:03:16] One day the bottom a-go drop out,

[00:03:21] One day the bottom a-go drop out.

[00:03:25] I say

[00:03:27] I, I, I, I, shot the sheriff.

[00:03:35] Lord, I didn't shot the deputy. No!

[00:03:41] I, I (shot the sheriff)

[00:03:46] But I didn't shoot no deputy,
