I shot, I shot, I shot, I shot, I shot, the sheriff
Don't drink while I sing, keyed up in shelter
Don't drink while I sing

Don't sleep on it either, you see something might rupture

I shot the sheriff, 'ful because you might get shot
I shot the sheriff, 'ful because you might get shot
I shot the sheriff, 'ful because you might get shot
'Ful because you might get shot
'Ful because you migh
