I Fought the Law (The Crickets cover) Lyrics
I'm 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 won
I left my baby and I feel so sad
I guess my race is run
But she's the best girl I've ever had
I fought the law and the law won
I fought the law and the law won
Robbin' people with a six-gun
I fought the law and the law won
I fought the law and the law won
I miss my baby and the good fun
I fought the law and the law won
I fought the law and the law won
I left my baby and I feel so sad
I guess my race is run
But she's the best girl I've ever had
I fought the law and the law won
I fought the law and the law won
I fought the law and the law won
I fought the law and the law won
I fought the law and the law won
I fought the law and the law won
I guess my race is run
But she's the best girl I've ever had
I fought the law and the law won
I fought the law and the law won
I fought the law and the law won
I fought the law and the law won
I fought the law and the law won
I fought the law and the law won
I guess my race is run
But she's the best girl I've ever had
I fought the law and the law won
I fought the law and the law won

Mike Ness from Social D did this song too, its a classic song and kicks ass no matter who does it

The Clash did a cover of this song too!

good song, I think it was originally done by Bobby Fuller back in the '60s

Dead Kennedys did it too (but changed it around a bit to "I fought the law and I won". I haven't heard Bruce's, but I'm sure it rocks (like everything he does)

kennedy's also mention sumthing about the kkk if i remember
