Song lyrics I Shot The Sheriff (Live) from Live In Hyde Park Dvd album.
All around in my hometown, theyre tryin to track me down
And they say they want to bring me in guilty, for the killin of a deputy... for the life of a deputy....... I SAY....
I shot the sheriff, but I did not shoot no deputy
I shot the sheriff, but I did not shoot no deputy
Sheriff John Brown always hated me, for what I dont know
Everytime that I plant a seed, he says kill it before it grows, he says kill it before it grows and I say no....
I shot the sheriff, but i swear it was in self defense
I shot the sheriff, and they say it is a capital offense
Freedom came my way one day
I started out of town
All of a sudden I say Sheriff John Brown
Aiming to shoot me down
So i had, i had to shot him down
You can read it in the News
IF I AM GUILTY I WILL PAY
I shot the sheriff, but i didnt shoot no deputy
I shot the sheriff, but i didnt shoot no deputy
Reflexes got the better of me
And what will be will be
Everyday the bucket goes to the well
One day the bottom must drop out,
I Say one day the bottom must drop out, one day the bottom must drop out, and I Say
I shot the sheriff, but i didnt shoot no deputy
I shot the sheriff, but i didnt shoot no deputy
APPEARS ON THE LIVE DVD IN HYDE PARK
