What’s the top “law” song? According to ATL, it’s “I Fought the Law” as performed by The Clash. The song was originally recorded by Sonny Curtis and the Crickets, but was popularized by Bobby Fuller before being immortalized by The Clash. The lyrics are incredibly simple — the title is repeated again and again — but the song is still quite catchy. Here’s a taste:
Breakin’ rocks in the hot sun
I fought the law and the law won
I fought the law and the law won
I needed money ’cause I had none
I fought the law and the law won
I fought the law and the law wonI left my baby and it feels so bad
Guess my race is run
She’s the best girl that I ever had
I fought the law and the law won
