Idioma Origen:
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 own 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
I say:
I shot the sheriff,
But I swear it was in self-defense
I shot the sheriff,
And they say it is a capital offense
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 them before they grow"
I say:
I shot the sheriff,
But I swear it was in self-defense
I shot the sheriff,
But I swear it was in self-defense
Freedom came my way one day
And I started out of town
All of a sudden I saw sheriff John Brown
Aiming to shoot me down
So I shot, I shot him down
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 are 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
I say:
I shot the sheriff,
But I did not shoot the deputy
I shot the sheriff,
But I did not shoot the deputy
--------------------------------------------
Yo maté al Sheriff, pero nunca le disparé al Diputado
todos alrededor de mi casa buscándome,
quieren que me declare culpable
por el asesinato de un Diputado, pero digo:
Yo maté al Sheriff, pero juro que fue en defensa propia,
yo maté al Sheriff, y ellos dicen que es un delito capital.
El Sheriff John Brown siempre me odió y no sé por que,
cada vez que planto una semilla
el decía que hay que matarla antes de que crezca, pero digo:
Yo maté al Sheriff , pero fue en defensa propia
venia caminando tranquilamente a la ciudad
y de repente lo veo al Sheriff apuntándome,
entonces le disparo y cae.
Yo maté al Sheriff, pero no le disparé al Diputado,
reflejo lo mejor de mi y eso es lo que tiene que ser
todo el día el balde va a la fuente
pero un día esto se acabara.
