letra de i shot the sheriff - bob marley & the wailers
[chorus]
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, ooh
[verse 1]
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 k!lling of a deputy
for the life of a deputy
but i say
oh, now, now, oh
[chorus]
i shot the sheriff, the sheriff
but i swear it was in self-defense, oh no
ooh, ooh, ooh, yeah
i say, i shot the sherriff, oh lord
and they say it is a capital offense, yeah
ooh, ooh, ooh, yeah
[verse 2]
sheriff john brown always hated me
for what, i don’t know
every time i plant a seed
he said k!ll it before it grow
he said k!ll them before they grow
and so, and so
read it in the news
[chorus]
i shot the sheriff, oh lord
but i swear it was in self-defense
where was the deputy? ooh, ooh, ooh
i say, i shot the sheriff
but i swear it was in self-defense, yeah
ooh-ooh
[verse 3]
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 (pay, pay, pay, pay, pay)
[chorus]
i shot the sheriff
but i say, but i didn’t shoot no deputy
i didn’t shoot no deputy, oh no, ooh, ooh, ooh
i shot the sheriff, i did
but i didn’t shoot no deputy, oh
ooh, ooh, ooh
[verse 4]
reflexes had 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
[outro]
i say
i-i-i, i shot the sheriff
lord, i didn’t shot the deputy, no
yeah, i-i shot the sheriff
but i didn’t shoot no deputy, yeah, so, yeah
