who wrote i fought the law and the law won?
sonny curtis
the album was released as a response to "i fought the law"'s impressive chart performance, featuring a re-recorded version of the song on stereo copies of the album ( in which fuller slyly inserts a certain four-letter word in place of the word "fun"). the song was written by sonny curtis and had been previously released on the crickets first album without buddy holly, "in style with the crickets". in addition, the album recycles seven songs from fuller's previous album "krla king of the wheels", including the band's previous hit single, "let her dance" and "i fought the law"'s b-side, "little annie lou". many songs are also reworkings of older songs recorded by bobby fuller in his home studio in el paso, including "i fought the law", "julie" and "only when i dream" are new songs. "she's my girl" is listed on the front cover but does not appear on this album as it did on the first.
