What Are The Lyrics For I Shot the Sheriff By Yannick Noah?

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
Ooh, ooh, ooh Yeah

All around in my hometown
They're tryin' to track me down, yeah
They say they want to bring me in guilty
For the killing of a deputy, for the life of a deputy
But I say, oh, now, now

Oh, I shot the sheriff, but I swear it was in self defence
Ooh, ooh, ooh
I said, I shot the sheriff, Oh Lord
And they say it is a capital offence
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Hear this

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 so, oh, now, now,
Read it in the news

I shot the sheriff, but I swear it was in self defence
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Where was the deputy?
I said I shot the sheriff but I swear it was in self defence

Freedom came my way one day
And I started out of town, yeah!
All of a sudden I saw Sheriff John Brown
Aiming to shoot me down
So I shot, I shot, I shot him down
And I say, if I am guilty I will pay

I shot the sheriff, but I say, but I didn't shoot no deputy
Ooh, no, oh
I shot the sheriff, but I didn't shoot no deputy
Ooo, ooo, ooh

Reflexes had the better of me
And what is to be must be
Every day the bucket a-go-a well
One day the bottom a-go drop out
One day the bottom a-go drop out
I say, I, I,

I, I shot the sheriff, but I didn't shoot the deputy, no
I shot the sheriff, but I didn't shoot the deputy.
