Many people love reality or fictional crime shows. What songs are about crime? Either committed or thought about. I was surprised when I thought of this just how many there are. 

Hey Joe-Jimi Hendrix


 Hey Joe I heard you shot your woman down You shot her down, now

                Over The Hills And Far Away - Gary Moore

                 

                It’s a similar tale as Long Black Veil, only this time it was a robbery. His pistol was found, but he couldn’t defend himself because he had been with a married woman. Meanwhile, his love prays he will return when he gets out of prison.

                  Wolverton Mountain:  Claude King  (A likely future crime. Young man sets off to climb the mountain to claim his love, though he might die at the hands of a gun and knife wielding, angry, protective father. Good luck with that).

                    I remember when that song came out. It was played on our local radio station ad nauseum! If I heard it again, it would be too soon! 😂

                        ElPaso:  Marty Robbins  (He kills a guy in a gunfight over a young girl. Then, to make matters even worse, he steals someone's horse and flees the scene. Stealing a horse ranked with murder back then. A third crime was committed when he was gunned down by a bunch of cowboys. The path of true love rarely runs smooth.)
