I Shot the Sheriff - Tony Modicano
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 no ooh no
Yeah all around in my home town
They're trying to track me down
They say they want to bring me in guilty
For the killing of a deputy
For the life of a deputy
But I say
I shot the sheriff
But I swear it was in self defense
I say I shot the sheriff oh lord
And they say it is a capital offense
Sheriff john brown always hated me
For what I don't know
Every time I plant a seed
He said kill it before it grow
He said kill them before they grow
And so
I shot the sheriff oh lord
But I swear it was in self defense
oh no oh no
I shot the sheriff
But I swear it was in self defense oh yeah
Freedom came my way one day
And I started out of town yeah
All of a sudden I saw sheriff john brown
So I shot 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
I shot the sheriff
But I didn't shoot no deputy
Reflexes had got 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 shot the sheriff
Lord I didn't shot the deputy
Oh no oh no
I shot the sheriff
But I didn't shoot no deputy yeah so yeah
