While the Bobby Fuller Four recording remains the definitive version, this Stray Cats version is second ONLY to the Bobby Fuller Four! 5 Stars full for the Stray Cats!
What a great cover version of this classic Bobby Fuller Four song! Love it! And all I thought Stray Cats accomplished was Stray Cat Strut and Rock This Town but never knew of this one. And yes, I'm aware Stray Cats had a lot of hits, but my favorites were the two I mentioned.

The original was from the late 50's, then Bobby Fuller covered it in the 60's, which, in turn, was covered by the Clash in the late 70's and THAT'S how we end up with the Stray Cats - a band that created the neobilly sound in the 80's. Long story short: It's an 80's song from an 80's band ;) I Hope I could help
Great pop song. I like this version but it's a bit percussion-heavy. For me Bobby Fuller is better, so is the Clash. Sonny Curtis (of the Crickets) does something different and real good with this.
For every time I see a handmade SMG, I'll hear this song! Who has to understand, understand!
Especially one handled by a badass long-haired Texan?
@@stormsavage6673 Indeed...
I was surprised since I thought I was the only one who knew about this version being a greaser.
I also wish to construct a luty submachine gun in my backyard
@@witwunsz4740 you can XD
Buen grupo hermanos tocan bien ❤️❤️🇻🇪
This song makes me want to build a Luty
RIP Luty and JStark.
You found this song there too eh?
You here from Brandon Herrera too
Tutti frutti, Luty shooty.
Me on my way to get my dog shot
"Tuty Fruity Luty Shooty"
My favourite version, it combines the better musical elements of the Bobby Fuller Four's version with the faster pace of The Clash's version.
+MrMViceroy
Yeah well said, man. You nailed it.
Agreed. Best version out there.
@Greg Hubbard a bit extreme but ok.
Buddy holly and clash is a great version

Tooty fruity, Luty shooty.
Wow bloody hell absolutely amazing brilliant love the Stray Cats and this has got to be the best version of this song EVER

Starts? 🤨
Saudações do Brazil

I wanna go to bed but first, tooty fruity, luty shooty.
Two versions were recorded.
One around 88/89 as a b-side for Bring It Back Again.
The other one in 1992 for the Original Cool album.
Go go Stray Cats this version is great . You can't beat the best rockabilly band in the world yesss Stray Cats.
I am Stacie Ann Buckley.. I love my country and our kids. And Rock n Roll
The Stray Cats covered this as well?!?! That makes it harder to pick which version to put on my setlist I'm writing for my gonna be radio show.
The clash is my personal favourite, but this is a nice one too :D
What a great cover version of this classic Bobby Fuller Four song! Love it!

Actually Buddy Holly did this at first
@@jartsipeksi2131 sounds like something Buddy Holly would do.
I like all versions, this, the Clash, and the original by the BFF. All possess their individual appeal.
Original song made the crickets not bff
Mi versión preferida.
Excellent cover
Love this. We cover this version
I love this song
Great cover 😊
I feel like i am an extra character in a Las Vegas' casino in the 90's while i am watching the main characters throw hands with the bad guys

[Verse]
Breakin' rocks in the hot sun
I fought the law and'a the law won
I fought the law and'a the law won
I needed money 'cause I had none
I fought the law and'a the law won
I fought the law and'a the law won
[Chorus]
I left my baby and it feels so bad
I guess my race is run
She's the best girl that I ever had
I fought the law and'a the law won
I fought the law and'a
[Pre-Chorus]
Robbin' people with a six-gun
I fought the law and'a the law won
I fought the law and'a the law won
I lost my girl and I lost my fun
I fought the law and'a the law won
I fought the law and'a the law won
[Chorus]
I left my baby and it feels so bad
I guess my race is run
She's the best girl that I ever had
I fought the law and'a the law won
I fought the law and'a
[Outro]
I fought the law and'a the law won
I fought the law and'a the law won
I fought the law and'a the law won
I fought the law and'a the law won
I fought the law and'a the law won
I fought the law and'a the law won
I fought the law and'a the law won
I fought the law and'a

MUNCHAS VECES EL TIEMPO TE CAMBIA EL GUSTO POR LA MUSICA PERO EN LO PERSONAL ESTE ESPACIO ES MIO Y SI TU QUIERES TU TAMBIEN LO ERES NELLY.

Yea man!!! But it all catches up too yoo sooner than ladder stairway to hell. I'm breathing Not WELL THERE YOOO GOOO. DDD
de que disco es esta cancion? :)
¿From what age is this song of this band?. If someone knows, answer me please
The original was from the late 50's, then Bobby Fuller covered it in the 60's, which, in turn, was covered by the Clash in the late 70's and THAT'S how we end up with the Stray Cats - a band that created the neobilly sound in the 80's. Long story short: It's an 80's song from an 80's band ;) I Hope I could help
Gentleman Frank I think I like both equally. Sometimes I'm in a bit of a Stray Cats-mood and sometimes I feel like the Clash just does it for me.
Gentleman Frank See? ;)
+Greasy Hair, Greasy Hands, Greasy Mind your youtube name matches my character!!!
Eagle Ho That'd make us two. That's why I went for it.
pootis rematched and law won
i needed money, cuz i had none ..
I can help I am good with my Gids help and yours.
until sally I was never happy
same
Great pop song. I like this version but it's a bit percussion-heavy. For me Bobby Fuller is better, so is the Clash. Sonny Curtis (of the Crickets) does something different and real good with this.
+bennevisplace In case you didn't know, Sonny Curtis was the original guy.
bennevisplace the clash has the edge here. Try playing all three after each other. And you will see what I mean
Rockabilly
The Clash don't even use the correct chords. Sad.
The stray cats were much better musicians than the clash and it shows in their respective covers of this Sonny Curtis tune.
Clash clash clash ⚡️the clash the best version ever , intro is dynamic ,,, the stray cats not bad , Bobby Fuller dull
Bobby Fullers version is definitely better
Its good but it can't match Clash one, specially live version..
LOL shameless copy of joy division for the opening bit then it becomes it's own
+TheGreatUtopiaCat
The original of this song came way before Joy Division BTW. I'd guess it was more the other way around.
ibuprofen303 shiet my bad
TheGreatUtopiaCat
The Crickets :-o no less. The year after Buddy Holly died, if I'm not mistaken. It's certainly not him singing on it.
Prefer the Clash version
