Warren G - I Shot the Sheriff lyrics

Album: Take A Look Over Your Shoulder (Explicit) (1997)

--Chorus--
I shot the sheriff
--Chorus--

Verse One:

I had to shoot the sheriff it was justifiable
he mistaked me for somebody who was liable
for all tha many murders l.a & war fields
we keep makin war shields
streets keep souls
young brothers loose control
I seem to main´tain through this
watch where ya kick it they will put you in a twist
and it ain´t nobody like my down ass hommie
and tha police always tryin to pin some bullshit on me
I keep away from fools
they do crime & it attracts cops
cops got guns & cuffs
and cells to stuff you in

--Chorus--

Verse Two:

They tryin´ to stick with some bullshit that I didn´t do
you know who
the boys in blue
there they go with they assumpitons
slaverys over let us have somethin´
why you want to pull me over?
Cuz I am bumpin?
I just made a new song
my profession is music
your profession is protection with gats
then use it on him when he has tryin´ to take my life away
I am just tryin´ to live my life today
so I keep away from fools they do crime it attract cops
cops got guns & cuffs
and cells to stuff you in

--Chorus--

Verse Three:

I shot the sheriff
I did not shoot the deputiy I did not have to
Cuz in this game they always tryin´ to blast you
and leave it to tha cops to find out who did the murder
they harrase tha wrong clan & arrest tha wrong man
the hommie day-dog got strapped but thats okay
cuz I am going to work for life
so he can see another day
a hommies a hommie
a fake is a snake
straight game from tha pen from tha hommie jake
so I keep away from fools they do crime it attract cops
cops got guns & cuffs
and cells to stuff you in
