 <br />
             (I shot the sheriff<br />
              But I didn`t shoot no deputy, oh no!  Oh!<br />
              I shot the sheriff<br />
              But I didn`t shoot no deputy, ooh, ooh, oo-ooh.)<br />
             Yeah!  All around in my home town,<br />
             They`re tryin` to track me down;<br />
             They say they want to bring me in guilty<br />
             For the killing of a deputy,<br />
             For the life of a deputy.<br />
             But I say:<br />
 <br />
             Oh, now, now.  Oh!<br />
             (I shot the sheriff.) - the sheriff.<br />
             (But I swear it was in selfdefence.)<br />
                Oh, no!  (Ooh, ooh, oo-oh)  Yeah!<br />
             I say: I shot the sheriff - Oh, Lord! -<br />
             (And they say it is a capital offence.)<br />
                Yeah! (Ooh, ooh, oo-oh)  Yeah!<br />
 <br />
             Sheriff John Brown always hated me,<br />
             For what, I don`t know:<br />
             Every time I plant a seed,<br />
             He said kill it before it grow -<br />
             He said kill them before they grow.<br />
             And so:<br />
 <br />
             Read it in the news:<br />
             (I shot the sheriff.)  Oh, Lord!<br />
             (But I swear it was in self-defence.)<br />
             Where was the deputy?  (Oo-oo-oh)<br />
             I say: I shot the sheriff,<br />
             But I swear it was in selfdefence.  (Oo-oh)  Yeah!<br />
 <br />
             Freedom came my way one day<br />
             And I started out of town, yeah!<br />
             All of a sudden I saw sheriff John Brown<br />
             Aiming to shoot me down,<br />
             So I shot - I shot - I shot him down and I say:<br />
             If I am guilty I will pay.<br />
 <br />
             (I shot the sheriff,)<br />
             But I say (But I didn`t shoot no deputy),<br />
             I didn`t shoot no deputy (oh, no-oh), oh no!<br />
             (I shot the sheriff.)  I did!<br />
             But I didn`t shoot no deputy.  Oh!  (Oo-oo-ooh)<br />
 <br />
             Reflexes had got the better of me<br />
             And what is to be must be:<br />
             Every day the bucket a-go a well,<br />
             One day the bottom a-go drop out,<br />
             One day the bottom a-go drop out.<br />
             I say:<br />
 <br />
             I - I - I - I shot the sheriff.<br />
             Lord, I didn`t shot the deputy.  Yeah!<br />

[Bob Marley]

(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, oo-ooh.)
Yeah! All around in my home town,
They`re tryin` 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, now, now. Oh!
(I shot the sheriff.) - the sheriff.
(But I swear it was in selfdefence.)
Oh, no! (Ooh, ooh, oo-oh) Yeah!
I say: I shot the sheriff - Oh, Lord! -
(And they say it is a capital offence.)
Yeah! (Ooh, ooh, oo-oh) Yeah!

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:

Read it in the news:
(I shot the sheriff.) Oh, Lord!
(But I swear it was in self-defence.)
Where was the deputy? (Oo-oo-oh)
I say: I shot the sheriff,
But I swear it was in selfdefence. (Oo-oh) Yeah!

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),
I didn`t shoot no deputy (oh, no-oh), oh no!
(I shot the sheriff.) I did!
But I didn`t shoot no deputy. Oh! (Oo-oo-ooh)

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 - I - I - I shot the sheriff.
Lord, I didn`t shot the deputy. Yeah!
I - I (shot the sheriff) -
But I didn`t shoot no deputy, yeah! No, yeah!
