Descarrilao - I Shot The Sheriff Lyrics

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

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
Oh no no
Oh no no

I shot the sheriff, but I didn't shoot no deputy
I shot the sheriff, and they say it is a capital offense

Sheriff John Brown always hated me
For what I don't know
Every time that I plant a seed
He said, ""Kill it before it grows""
He said, ""Kill them before they grow"",
And so Read it in the news

I shot the sheriff, but I swear it was in self-defense oh no no where was the deputy
I shot the sheriff, but I swear it was in self-defense

Freedom came my way one day
And I started out of town
All of a sudden I saw sheriff Juancito 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 didn't shoot no deputy No no no, Didn't shot no deputy
I shot the sheriff, but I didn't shoot no deputy

Reflexes got the better of me
And what must be must be
Every day the bucket to go a well
One day the bottom a gone drop out
One day the bottom a gone drop out,
And I say On no no
Oh no no

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