New! Help Create Crime Rock Playlist

We want to compile a playlist of rock'n'roll songs that have a crime theme in them.

There are probably hundreds of songs out there, so give us your favorites. We'll update the list (in alphabetical order by artist first name) from time to time.

For instance, a great song is Jimmy Buffett's The Great Filling Station Holdup. Or Eric Clapton's I Shot The Sheriff (I know, I know, Marley did it first, but Clapton's version is more famous). Or Bobby Fuller's I Fought The Law (And The Law Won). So give us your picks by filling in the comment section below. A basic rule will be that we want songs people have heard of. It doesn't have to have made the charts, but at least a song or group that people know.

By the way, Eric Clapton's Cocaine is a drug song, not a crime song. While Cocaine is illegal, nothing in the song or title connotes a crime aspect to the song. This is not a drug playlist, it is a crime playlist. A song should have some crime reference in it.
