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 it before it grows.' I say: I shot the sheriff, but I swear it was in self-defense. Originally written by Bob Marley, Clapton's version of I Shot the Sheri. Watch Eric Clapton perform 'I Shot The Sheriff' live from Chicago at Crossroads 2010.

LETRA

'I Shot The Sheriff'

I shot the sheriff
But I didn't shoot no deputy
Oh, no, no
I shot the sheriff
But I didn't shoot no deputy
Ooh

All around in my hometown
They're tryin' to track me down
They say they want to bring me in guilty
For the life of a deputy
For the life of a deputy
But I say

I shot the sheriff
(But I swear it was in self-defense) I swear it was in self-defense, yeah
It was 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 I plant a seed
He said kill them before it grow
He said kill them before they grow
And so

And so

I shot the sheriff
But I didn't shoot the deputy
It was I shot the sheriff
(But I didn't shoot the deputy) I didn't shoot the deputy, no, no

Freedom came my way one day
And I started out of town, yeah
Then all of a sudden I saw sheriff John Brown
He was aiming to shoot I down
So I shot, yes, I shot, shot him down
And I say

I-I-I-I shot the sheriff
Lord, I didn't shoot the deputy
(No, no, no)
It was I who shot the sheriff
But I didn't shoot the deputy

Reflexes had the better of me
And what is to be must be
Every day the bucket goes to the well
I say, one day the bottom a-go drop out
One day the bottom will drop out
And so
And so
Really sing

I shot the sheriff
But I didn't shoot the deputy
(No, no, no)
I shot the sheriff
But I didn't shoot the deputy

Sobre I Shot The Sheriff

I Shot The Sheriff Song

• Marley explicó su intención de la siguiente manera: 'Quiero decir: 'Le disparé a la policía', pero el gobierno habría montado un escándalo, así que dije: 'Le disparé al sheriff'.... pero es la misma idea: justicia'.

• En una interpretación alternativa, una entrevista de 1 minuto y 52 segundos de 1975 fue grabada en su álbum póstumo, Talkin' Blues (tema 20). Allí cuenta la historia de su infancia en Trenchtown, Jamaica, donde los hombres trataban de luchar contra él, y lo usaba para escribir una canción. No peleó con el hombre, buscó la razón por la cual el hombre estaba enojado, le disparó al verdadero problema de por qué el hombre estaba enojado (el sheriff), y no al hombre (el ayudante).

• Eric Clapton grabó una versión de portada muy famosa en 1974, justo un año después de la original.
