screamin’ jay hawkins – i shot the sheriff lyrics
i shot the sheriff
but i did not k!ll the deputy
no no no no
i shot the sheriff
but i did not shoot the deputy
i’m telling you so
all around in my home town,
they are trying to track me down;
they say they want to bring me in guilty
for the k!lling of a deputy,
for the life of a deputy.
but i say
i shot the sheriff
but i swear it was in selfdefence.
i gotta protect myself, you know?
i shot the sheriff
but they say it was a capital offence
sheriff john brown always hated me,
for what, i don’t know
every time that i planted a seed,
he said k!ll it before it grows
he said k!ll it before they grows
but i say
i shot the sheriff
but i swear it was in selfdefence.
and im not lying either
i shot the sheriff
i repeat, i gotta tell you again it was in selfdefence.
freedom came my way one day
and i started out of town!
all of a sudden i see the sheriff john brown
with his pistol planning to shoot me down
so i shot him – i mean i shot him down
but i say
i shot the sheriff
but i did not shoot the deputy
i shot the sheriff
but i did not shoot the deputy
reflexition got the better of me
and what used to be must be:
every day the bucket a goes to a well,
one day the bottom will drop out,
i repeat
one day the bottom will drop out.
but i say
look out for the archie
(i shot the sheriff)
look out for the fbi
(i shot the sheriff)
look out whats going on in the yard
and he comes jonhson ktp
jonhdon got a baseball bat
with all his problems too
dont like my brutal
and y’all made friends with china
watch iut for the northwest monopolis
shoot him
yo yo yo yo yo yo yooooo
give me my double barrel shot gun
let me blow his brain out of his head
let me step on his grave with big al fat toe
i shot the sheriff
i lose my breath
i got no run
all his got guns
i cant go fast
they want to kick my knee
oh i shot the sheriff
what can i see
i shot the sherrif it’s the end of me
oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
