I Shot The Sheriff - Live Version
I shot the sheriff
But I did not shoot no deputy
I shot the sheriff
But I did not shoot no deputy
All around in my hometown
They're trying to track me down
They say they want to bring me in guilty
Killing of the deputy
For the life of a deputy
But I say, oh, no, no
I shot the sheriff
But I did not shoot no deputy
I shot the sheriff
But I did not shoot no deputy
(Bob Marley did)
Sheriff John Brown always hated me
For what? I don't know
And every time that I plant a seed
He said, "kill it before it grows"
Kill it before it grows (oh)
I shot the sheriff
But I did not shoot no deputy
I shot the sheriff
But I did not shoot no deputy
Freedom came my way one day
So I started out of town
All of a sudden, I see Sheriff John Brown
Aiming to shoot me down
So I shot, I shot him down
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
What will be will be
Every day the bucket goes to the well
One day, the bottom will drop out
I said, "One day the bottom will drop out", oh, yeah
I shot the sheriff
But I did not shoot no deputy, oh, no
I shot the sheriff
But I did not shoot no deputy, alright
Thank you
But I did not shoot no deputy
I shot the sheriff
But I did not shoot no deputy
All around in my hometown
They're trying to track me down
They say they want to bring me in guilty
Killing of the deputy
For the life of a deputy
But I say, oh, no, no
I shot the sheriff
But I did not shoot no deputy
I shot the sheriff
But I did not shoot no deputy
(Bob Marley did)
Sheriff John Brown always hated me
For what? I don't know
And every time that I plant a seed
He said, "kill it before it grows"
Kill it before it grows (oh)
I shot the sheriff
But I did not shoot no deputy
I shot the sheriff
But I did not shoot no deputy
Freedom came my way one day
So I started out of town
All of a sudden, I see Sheriff John Brown
Aiming to shoot me down
So I shot, I shot him down
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
What will be will be
Every day the bucket goes to the well
One day, the bottom will drop out
I said, "One day the bottom will drop out", oh, yeah
I shot the sheriff
But I did not shoot no deputy, oh, no
I shot the sheriff
But I did not shoot no deputy, alright
Thank you
