refrain2
(deux fois)
|
but I swear it was in selfdefence.
|
|
Sheriff John Brown always hated me
|
|
Ev'ry time that I plant a seed
|
|
he said "Kill it before it grow," (deux fois)
|
(refrain2)
|
Freedom came my way one day
|
|
and I started out of town.
|
|
All of a sudden I see sheriff John Brown,
|
|
So I shot, I shot him down.
|
(refrain1)
|
Reflexes got the better of me
|
|
and what is to be must be.
|
|
Ev'ry day the bucket goes to the well,
|
|
but one day the bottom will drop out,
|
|
yes one day the bottom will drop out.
