Who originally wrote the song "I Fought the Law"?

Answer 1

"I Fought the Law" is a much-covered song originally recorded by Sonny Curtis of The Crickets. The song is more identified in the eyes (and ears) of many music fans with the Bobby Fuller Four, who recorded a more successful version of the song in 1965, and of The Clash, who recorded a punk rock version in 1978.

Just as the song became a top ten hit, Bobby Fuller was found dead in a parked automobile near his Los Angeles home. The police considered the death an apparent suicide; however, many people still believe Fuller was murdered.

It was the existence of a 45 of the Bobby Fuller version in a studio jukebox that inspired The Clash to record a cover version of the song in 1978. Their version first appeared on the EP Cost Of Living in May 1979 in England, and then later in 1979 was made part of the American edition of the Clash's eponymous album. This cover version helped gain the Clash their first taste of airplay in the States and is probably the most well-known cover version of the song, not counting Fuller's.

Dead Kennedy's did a version of "I fought the law" but instead of ending the sentence with "the law won", they sang it as "and I won"

Answer 4

I already do. Ephesians 6:10-12 New King James version (NKJV) the entire Armor of God 10 ultimately, my brethren, be sturdy interior the Lord and interior the potential of His would. 11 placed on the entire armor of God, which you would be waiting to stand against the wiles of the devil. 12 For we don't wrestle against flesh and blood, yet against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this age, against non secular hosts of wickedness interior the heavenly places.
