Prison-Themed Top Ten: I Fought the Law (#4)

Four Walls @FourWalls (86735) • United States 9 May 20

A few days I had a old country double-feature in the dual countdowns of songs with “jail” or “prison” in the title and songs with a prison theme. Hopefully today’s two-fer makes up for that. With so many versions of this classic...
