I Shot The Scheriff Lyrics - Singles - Warren G

I shot the sheriff 

But I did not shoot the deputiy 

I shot the sheriff 

But I did not shoot the deputiy 

I had to shoot the sheriff it was justifiable 

he mistaked me for somebody who was liable 

for all tha many murders l.a and war fields 

we keep makin war shields 

streets keep souls 

young brothers loose control 

I seem to maintain through this 

watch where ya kick it they'll put you in a twist 

and it aint nobody like my down ass hommie 

and tha police always tryin to pin some bullshit on me 

I keep away from foolsthey do crime and it attracts cops 

cops got guns and cuffs 

and cells to stuff you in 

I shot the sheriff 

But I did not shoot the deputiy 

I shot the sheriff 

But I did not shoot the deputiy 

They tryin' to stick with some bullshit that I did not do 

you know who 

the boys in blue 

there they go with they assumpitons 

slaverys over let us have somethin' 

why you wanna pull me over? 

'cause I'm bumpin? 

I just made a new song 

my profession is music 

your profession is protection with gats 

then use it on him when he's tryin' to take my life away 

I'm just tryin' to live my life today 

so I keep away from fools they do crime it attract cops 

cops got guns and cuffs 

and cells to stuff you in 

I shot the sheriff 

But I did not shoot the deputiy 

I shot the sheriff 

But I did not shoot the deputiy 

I shot the sheriff 

I didn't shoot the deputiy I didn't have to 

'cause 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 and arrest tha wrong man 

the hommie day-dog got strapped but thats okay 

'cause I'm gonna 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 and cuffs 

and cells to stuff you in
