I Shot the Sheriff

I Shot The Sheriff - The New Reggaeton All-Stars

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: And so:

Read it in the news:

(I shot the sheriff ) Oh Lord

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

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:
