I Shot The Sheriff

I Shot The Sheriff - Laughton Kora

Written by：Bob Marley

I shot the sheriff oh

I shot the sheriff oh

All around in my home town

They're trying to track me down

They say they want to bring me in guilty

No no

For the life of a deputy

For the life of a deputy

I shot the sheriff but I did not shoot the deputy

I shot the sheriff but I did not shoot the deputy

I shot the sheriff no I did not shoot 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 see sheriff John Brown

Aiming to shoot I down

Aiming to shoot I down yeah

Aiming to shoot I down

Aiming to shoot I down

I shot the sheriff but I did not shoot the deputy

I shot the sheriff but I did not shoot the deputy

I shot the sheriff but I did not shoot the deputy

Oh oh

I shot the sheriff but I swear it was in self-defense

I shot the sheriff

I shot the sheriff but I did not shoot the deputy

I shot the sheriff

I shot the sheriff but I did not shoot the deputy

I shot the sheriff

I shot the sheriff but I did not shoot the deputy

I shot the sheriff
