I Shot The Sheriff (Live)

I Shot The Sheriff (Live) - Eric Clapton (艾力克·克莱普顿)

I shot the sheriff but I did not shoot the deputy

I shot the sheriff but I did not shoot the deputy

All around in my home town

They're trying 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

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

I shot the sheriff and they say it is a capital offence

Sheriff John Brown always hated me

For what I don't know

Every time that I plant a seed

He said kill it before it grows

He said kill it before it grows

But I say

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

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

Freedom came my way one day

And I started out of town

All of a sudden I see sheriff John Brown

Aiming to shoot me down

So I shot I shot him down

But I say

I shot the sheriff but I did not shoot the deputy

I shot the sheriff but I did not shoot the deputy

Reflexes got the better of me

And what is to be must be

Every day the bucket goes to the well

But one day the bottom will drop out

Yes one day the bottom will drop out

But I say

I shot the sheriff but I did not shoot the deputy

Oh no

I shot the sheriff but I did not shoot the deputy

Oh no
