{I shot the sheriff} but I did not shoot the deputy.
{I shot the sheriff} but I didn't shoot the deputy.

All around in my home town
They're trying to track me do-o-own,
They say they want to bring me in guilty
For the killing of a deputy-ee,
For the life of a deputy-ee, but I sa-ay:

{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,
And every time that I plant a see-ed
He said: "Kill it befo-ore it grows".
He said: "Kill it befo-ore 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, yeah.
All of a sudden I see sheriff John Brown
Aiming to shoot me do-own,
So I shot, I shot him do-own, but I sa-a'a-ay:

< Keyboards interlude >

{I shot the sheriff} but I did not shoot the deputy.
{I shot the sheriff} but I didn't shoot the deputy.

Reflexes got the better of me
And what is to be must be-e.
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 sa-a-ay:

{I shot the sheriff} but I didn't shoot the deputy, oh no-ou.
{I shot the sheriff} but I did not shoot no deputy, oh no-o.
