I Shot The Sheriff

(앨범: Old Soul - 2023)

All around in my hometown
They're trying' to track me down
Say they want to bring me in guilty
For the life of a deputy
For the life of a deputy
And so... oh now now
I shot the sheriff, but I did not shoot no deputy
It was I shot the sheriff, but I did not shoot no deputy
No...
Sheriff John Brown did not like me
For what, I don't know
But every time I plant a seed
He say kill them before they grow
He say kill them before they grow now
And so, And so...
I shot the sheriff, but I did not shoot no deputy
It was I shot the sheriff, but I did not shoot no deputy
Where was the deputy...

I shot the sheriff, but I did not shoot no deputy
It was I shot the sheriff, but I did not shoot no deputy
Where was the deputy...

So freedom came my way one day
And I started out of town, yeah!
All of a sudden I saw sheriff John Brown
He was aiming to shoot me down
So I shot, yes I shot, I shot him down
And so... pai pai pai...

I shot the sheriff, but I did not shoot no deputy
It was I shot the sheriff, but I did not shoot no deputy
No... and so...

Reflexes had got the better of me
And then what is to be must be yeah eah eah
Every day the bucket goes to the well
Mi say, one day that bottom a-go drop out
I say one day the bottom a-go drop out
And so...
Read it in the news...
