I Shot The Sheriff
I SHOT THE SHERIFF
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 well
but one day the bottom wuill drop out,
yes, one day the bottom will drop out.
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.
- Bob Marley
我说我杀的是警长而非副警长
我说我杀的是警长而非副警长
他们在家乡为抓我而四处乱闯
他们说要把我作为罪犯送进牢房
让我给被我杀掉的副警长把命来偿
但我发誓我杀警长是自卫
他们却说我杀警长是犯罪
约翰布朗警长总是对我充满敌意
对我而言已不是秘密
每当我把种子放进地里
他就说“不等它成长就让他断气”
他说“不等它成长就让他断气”
我发誓杀掉警长纯属自卫
我发誓杀掉警长纯属自卫
某一天我自由自在地出城闲逛
猝不及防碰到了约翰布朗警长
他正在瞄准我把枪来放
所以我先下手为强
慌乱之中把他伤
我要申述
我杀的是警长而非副警长
我杀的是警长而非副警长
对我最好的惩罚是什么下场
必须那样来担当
桶里如果每天盛满东西
总有一天会撑破桶底
水满则溢，就像把兔子逼急
我要申述
我杀的是警长而非副警长
我杀的是警长而非副警长
