Don't Blame Me Lyrics

Hear my story and listen well Truth is in all that I tell It could never have been me I did not shoot no deputy
Mr. Grant, the deputy Friend to my whole family He always tell me when John Brown Was getting ready to come around
Don't blame me Don't blame me
I hide it all except a few seeds And make him think I plant for me When Mr. Grant and I know all the while We've got enough for the whole island
Three years now we sell it in town Under the bucket that goes down No one knew of it but three Mr. Grant, Davis and me
Don't blame me Don't blame me
I swear by God it is a plot Davis sent me here to rot Listen people, can't you see Mr. Davis shot the deputy
Don't blame me Don't blame me
Don't blame me Don't blame me Don't blame me
