Lyrics

I shot the sheriff But I didn't shoot no deputy Oh no, oh I shot the sheriff And they say it is a capital offense Oh oh All around in my hometown Trying to track me down They say they want to bring me guilty For the killing of a deputy For the killing of a deputy now I shot the sheriff Oh Lord But I swear it was in self-defense Oh oh I shot the sheriff But I swear it was in self-defense Oh oh oh yeah Sheriff John Brown always hated me For what I don't know Every time I plant a seed He said kill it before it grows He said kill them before they grow And I say If I am guilty I will pay I shot the sheriff But I didn't shoot no deputy Oh oh oh oh Freedom came my way one day And I started out of town All of a sudden I saw Sheriff John Brown Aiming to shoot me down He was aiming to shoot me down And I say If I am guilty I will pay I shot the sheriff But I didn't shoot no deputy Oh no oh I shot the sheriff But I didn't shoot no deputy Oh no oh
