Today's Under the Covers is "I Fought The Law" by Green Day but it's original comes from Sonny Curtis of Buddy Holly's Crickets.

Why?: This song has seen a lot of life and been covered by many artists such as Bobby Fuller, John Cougar Mellancamp, Springstein, Social Distortion, and Tom Petty among others. However, today is the anniversary of The Clash releasing their version, which was also their first US single.
