All around in my hometown
They are tryin' to track me down
Say they want to bring I in guilty
For the life of a deputy
For the life of a deputy now
And so
Oh, now, now
I shot the sheriff
But I did not shoot no deputy
It was I who shot the sheriff
But I did not shoot no deputy, no
Sheriff John Brown did not like me
For what, I don't know
But every time I plant a seed
He'd say, "Kill them before they grow"
He'd say, "Kill them before they grow now"
And so
And so
I shot the sheriff
But I did not shoot no deputy (oh, no, no)
It was I who shot the sheriff
But I did not shoot no deputy
If there was the deputy
I shot the sheriff
But I didn't shoot no deputy (oh, no, no)
It was I who shot the sheriff
But I did not shoot no deputy
There was a deputy
So freedom came my way one day
And I started out of town, yeah
When then all of a sudden, I saw sheriff John Brown
He was aiming to shoot me down
So I shot, yes, I shot, I shot him down
And so
Pie, pie, pie
I shot the sheriff
But I did not shoot no deputy, oh, oh, no (oh, no, no)
It was I who shot the sheriff
But I did not shoot no deputy
No, and so
Reflexes have the better of me
And then what is to be must be, yeah
If every day the bucket goes to the well
Me say, one day that bottom will drop out
I say one day that bottom will drop out, yeah
And so, here
And so
Read it in the news
They are tryin' to track me down
Say they want to bring I in guilty
For the life of a deputy
For the life of a deputy now
And so
Oh, now, now
I shot the sheriff
But I did not shoot no deputy
It was I who shot the sheriff
But I did not shoot no deputy, no
Sheriff John Brown did not like me
For what, I don't know
But every time I plant a seed
He'd say, "Kill them before they grow"
He'd say, "Kill them before they grow now"
And so
And so
I shot the sheriff
But I did not shoot no deputy (oh, no, no)
It was I who shot the sheriff
But I did not shoot no deputy
If there was the deputy
I shot the sheriff
But I didn't shoot no deputy (oh, no, no)
It was I who shot the sheriff
But I did not shoot no deputy
There was a deputy
So freedom came my way one day
And I started out of town, yeah
When then all of a sudden, I saw sheriff John Brown
He was aiming to shoot me down
So I shot, yes, I shot, I shot him down
And so
Pie, pie, pie
I shot the sheriff
But I did not shoot no deputy, oh, oh, no (oh, no, no)
It was I who shot the sheriff
But I did not shoot no deputy
No, and so
Reflexes have the better of me
And then what is to be must be, yeah
If every day the bucket goes to the well
Me say, one day that bottom will drop out
I say one day that bottom will drop out, yeah
And so, here
And so
Read it in the news
