[00:01.41]I Shot The Sheriff - Eric Clapton
[00:01.56]I shot the sheriff but I did not shoot the deputy.
[00:06.19]
[00:10.69]I shot the sheriff but I did not shoot the deputy.
[00:16.13]
[00:21.82]All around in my home town
[00:24.49]
[00:25.94]they're trying to track me down.
[00:29.05]
[00:30.80]They say they want to bring me in guilty
[00:34.30]
[00:35.86]for the killing of a deputy,
[00:38.29]
[00:40.67]for the life of a deputy.
[00:44.04]
[00:45.03]But I say
[00:46.48]
[00:52.47]I shot the sheriff but I swear it was in self-defence.
[00:59.14]
[01:02.52]I shot the sheriff and they say it is a capital offence.
[01:09.74]
[01:13.73]Sheriff John Brown always hated me,
[01:17.48]
[01:18.23]for what I don't know.
[01:21.29]
[01:23.28]Every time that I plant a seed
[01:28.00]he said, 'Kill it before it grows'.
[01:31.68]
[01:32.87]He said, 'Kill it before it grows'.
[01:36.43]
[01:37.36]But I say
[01:38.62]
[01:44.60]I shot the sheriff but I swear it was in self-defence.
[01:50.91]
[01:54.72]I shot the sheriff but I swear it was in self-defence.
[02:02.21]
[02:05.90]Freedom came my way one day
[02:08.64]
[02:10.57]and I started out of town.
[02:13.46]
[02:15.82]All of a sudden I see sheriff John Brown
[02:19.65]
[02:21.27]aiming to shoot me down
[02:23.89]
[02:24.89]so I shot, I shot him down.
[02:28.95]
[02:30.08]But I say
[02:31.75]
[02:40.68]I shot the sheriff but I did not shoot the deputy.
[02:46.48]
[02:50.47]I shot the sheriff but I did not shoot the deputy.
[02:56.97]
[03:01.66]Reflexes got the better of me
[03:04.43]
[03:06.87]and what is to be, must be.
[03:09.37]
[03:11.43]Every day the bucket goes to well
[03:15.05]
[03:16.29]but one day the bottom wuill drop out,
[03:20.04]
[03:21.41]yes, one day the bottom will drop out.
[03:24.72]
[03:25.47]But I say
[03:27.09]
[03:32.47]I shot the sheriff but I did not shoot the deputy.
[03:38.76]
[03:42.51]I shot the sheriff but I did not shoot the deputy.
