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. |

Blowing through the air If you listen carefully now you will hear This could be the first trumpet Might as well be the last Many more will have to suffer Many more will have to die Don't ask me why Things are not the way they used to be I won't tell no lie One and all got to face reality nowThough I try to find the answer To all the questions they ask Though I know it's impossible To go living through the past Don't tell no lie There's a natural mystic Blowing through the air Can't keep them down If you listen carefully now you will hear Such a natural mystic Blowing through the airThis could be the first trumpet Might as well be the last Many more will have to suffer Many more will have to die Don't ask me why There's a natural mystic Blowing through the air I won't tell no lie If you listen carefully now, you will hear |

Can't get me out of the race. Oh, man, you said I'm in your place And then you draw bad cyard - A-make you draw bad cyard, And then you draw bad cyard. Propaganda spreading over my name; Say you wanna bring another life to shame. Oh, man, you just a-playing a game And then you draw bad cyard (draw bad cyard); A-make you draw bad cyard (draw bad cyard); A-make you draw bad cyard. I want to disturb my neighbour, 'Cause I'm feelin' so right; I want to turn up my disco, Blow them to full watts tonight, eh! - In a rub-a-dub style, in a rub-a-dub style, In a rub-a-dub style, in a rub-a-dub style. 'Cause we guarding the palace so majestic; Guarding the palace so realistic! Them a-go tired to see we face (oh yeah!), Me say them can't get we out of the race; Oh, man, it's just a big disgrace. The way you draw bad cyard (draw bad cyard); The way you make wrong moves (make wrong moves); The way you draw bad cyard (draw bad cyard); A-make you draw bad cyard (draw bad cyard); A-make you draw bad cyard - In a rub-a-dub style, rub-a-dub style, In a rub-a-dub style - / out/ |

Old pirates yes they rob I
Sold I to the merchant ships Minutes after they took I From the bottomless pit But my hand was made strong By the hand of the almighty We forward in this generation Triumphantly All I ever had, is songs of freedom Won't you help to sing, these songs of freedom Cause all I ever had, redemption songs Redemption songs Emancipate yourselves from mental slavery None but ourselves can free our minds Have no fear for atomic energy Cause none of them can stop the time How long shall they kill our prophets While we stand aside and look Some say it's just a part of it We've got to fullfill the book Won't you help to sing, these songs of freedom Cause all I ever had, redemption songs Redemption songs, redemption songs Emancipate yourselves from mental slavery None but oursekves can free our minds Have no fear for atomic energy Cause none of them can stop the time How long shall they kill our prophets While we stand aside and look Yes some say it's just a part of it We've got to fullfill the book Won't you help to sing, these songs of freedom Cause all I ever had, redemption songs All I ever had, redemption songs These songs of freedom, songs of freedom |
