دانلود آهنگ I Shot The Sheriff (من کلانتر را کشتم) از The Wailers (د ویلرز)

Bob Marley در اینجا داستانی را از دیدگاه راوی روایت می‌کند که اعتراف می‌کند کلانتر محلی را کشته است و ادعا می‌کند که به دروغ متهم به کشتن معاون کلانتر شده است. این آهنگ اولین بار در سال ۱۹۷۳ در آلبوم Burnin' از گروه The Wailers منتشر شد. مارلی هدف خود را این‌گونه توضیح داد: من می‌خواستم بگویم «من پلیس را کشتم» اما دولت سر و صدا به پا می‌کرد، بنابراین به جای آن گفتم «من کلانتر را کشتم»… اما مفهوم همان است: عدالت. در یک تفسیر جایگزین، یک اثر ۱ دقیقه و ۵۲ ثانیه‌ای در سال ۱۹۷۵...

متن آهنگ I Shot The Sheriff The Wailers

I shot the sheriff, but I didn't shoot no deputy
Oh, no, oh
I shot the sheriff, but I didn't shoot no deputy
Ooh, ooh, ooh (yeah)
All around in my hometown
They tryin' to track me down, yeah
They say they want to bring me in guilty
For the killing of a deputy, for the life of a deputy
But I say, oh, now, now
Oh, I shot the sheriff (the sheriff), but I swear it was in self defense (no, no)
Ooh, ooh, ooh (yeah)
I said, I shot the sheriff (oh Lord)
And they say it is a capital offense (oh now, yeah)
Ooh, ooh, ooh (yeah)
(Hear this)
Sheriff John Brown always hated me
For what? I don't know
Every time I plant a seed
He said, "Kill it before it grows"
He said, "Kill them before they grow"
And so, and so
Read it in the news
I shot the sheriff (oh Lord), but I swear it was in self defense
Where was the deputy? (Ooh, ooh, ooh)
I said I shot the sheriff but I swear it was in self defense
Yeah (ooh)
Freedom came my way one day
And I started out of town, yeah
All of a sudden I saw Sheriff John Brown
Aiming to shoot me down
So I shot, I shot, I shot him down
And I say, if I am guilty I will pay
I shot the sheriff (but I say) but I didn't shoot no deputy
I didn't shoot no deputy, no (oh, no, oh)
I shot the sheriff, but I didn't shoot no deputy
Ooh, ooh, ooh (yeah)
Reflexes had the better of me
And what is to be must be
Every day the bucket a-go-a well
One day the bottom a-go drop out
One day the bottom a-go drop out
I say
I, I, I, I shot the sheriff, Lord, I didn't shoot the deputy, no
Yeah, I, I, shot the sheriff, but I didn't shoot no deputy, yeah
So yeah
