Original Lyrics
Translation in Spanish

chorus

(I shot the sheriff
Yo le dispare al sheriff
But I didn't shoot no deputy, oh no, oh
Pero yo no le disparé al diputado, oh no, oh
I shot the sheriff
Yo le dispare al sheriff
But I didn't shoot no deputy, ooh, ooh, ooh)
Pero no le disparé al diputado, ooh, ooh,ooh

verse

Yeah, all around in my home town
Yeah, por todas partes en mi propia ciudad
They're tryin' to track me down
Están tratando de tirarme abajo
They say they want to bring me in guilty
Dicen que quieren darme como culpable
For the killing of a deputy
Por el asesina-to de un diputado
For the life of a deputy, but I say
Por la vida de un diputado, pero yo digo

verse

Oh, now, now, oh
Oh ahora, ahora oh
(I shot the sheriff) the sheriff
(Le disparé al sheriff) al sheriff
(But I swear it was in self defense) oh, no (oh, oh, ooh)
(Pero juro que fue en defensa propia) Oh, no (oh, oh, ooh)
Yeah, I say, I shot the sheriff oh, Lord
Yeah, yo dije, le disparé al sheriff, oh, Señor
(And they say it is a capital offense)
(And they say it is a capital offense)
Yeah! (oh, oh, ooh) yeah
Yeah! (Oh, oh, ooh) yeah

verse

Sheriff John Brown always hated me
El Sheriff John Brown siempre me ha odiado
For what, I don't know
Por qué, no lo sé
Every time I plant a seed
Cada vez que planto una semilla
He said kill it before it grow
Dijo: mátalo antes de que crezca
He said kill them before they grow, and so
Dijo: mátalos antes de que crezcan

verse

Read it in the news! (I shot the sheriff) oh, Lord
Léelo en las noticias! (Yo le dispare al sheriff) oh, dios
(But I swear it was in self-defense)
Pero juro que fue en defensa propia
Where was the deputy? (oh, oh, ooh)
Dónde estaba el diputado? oh,oh,ooh
I said, I shot the sheriff
Dije, le disparé al sheriff
But I swear it was in self defense, yeah (ooh)
Pero juro que fue en defensa propia, yeah (ooh)

verse

Freedom came my way one day
La libertad vino a mi camino un día
And I started out of town, yeah
Y empecé fuera de la ciudad
All of a sudden I saw sheriff John Brown
De repente vi al sheriff John Brown
Aiming to shoot me down
Apuntandome para dispararme
So I shot, I shot, I shot him down and I say
Así que le disparé, le derribe y digo

verse

If I am guilty I will pay
Si soy culpable, yo pagaré
(I shot the sheriff)
Yo le dispare al sheriff
But I say ('Cause I didn't shoot no deputy)
Pero digo, yo no disparé al diputado
I didn't shoot no deputy (oh, no-oh) oh no
No le disparé al diputado oh, no-oh,oh no
(I shot the sheriff) I did
Le disparé al sheriff, lo hice
But I didn't shoot no deputy, oh (oh, oh, ooh)
Pero no le disparé al diputado

verse

Reflexes had got the better of me
Los reflejos habían sacado lo mejor de mí
And what is to be must be
Y lo que debe ser debe ser:
Everyday the bucket a-go a well
Todos los días, el cubo va al pozo
One day the bottom a-go drop out
Un día, la parte inferior de la lista va a desaparecer
One day the bottom a-go drop out, I say
Si, un día la parte inferior va a desaparecer, yo digo

outro

I, I, I, I, shot the sheriff
Yo, yo, yo, yo le disparé al sheriff
Lord, I didn't shot the deputy, no
Señor, no le disparé al diputado, no
I, I (shot the sheriff)
Yo, yo ( le disparé al sheriff)
But I didn't shoot no deputy, yeah
Pero no le disparé al diputado, yeah
So, yeah
Así que, yeah
Writer(s): Bob Marley
