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

    The Great Filling Station Holdup - Jimmy Buffet

     

    I pulled into the regular pump
    I was feelin' quite at ease
    I rolled down my window and told the man
    "Fifty cents worth, please"
    Then out jumped my partner
    With his trusty pellet gun
    He said, "Boy, this is a holdup
    Keep pumpin' and don't run."

    The Black Velvet Band - The Irish Rovers

     

    Well, I went out strolling one evening, not meaning to go very far,
    When I met with a frolicksome damsel. She was selling her trade in the bar.
    A watch she took from a customer, and slipped it right into my hand.
    Then the law came and put me in prison.
    Bad luck to her black velvet band!

    Her eyes, they shone like the diamonds.
    You'd think she was queen of the land,
    And her hair hung over her shoulders,
    Tied up with a black velvet band.

    Next morning, before judge and jury, for trial I had to appear.
    And the judge, he said "my young fellow, the case against you is quite clear.
    And seven long years is your sentence. You're going to Van Diemen's Land,
    Far away from your friends and relations. They follow the black velvet band."

    Whisky In The Jar - Thin Lizzy

     

    As I was goin’ over the Cork and Kerry mountains

    I saw Captain Farrell and his money he was countin’

    I first produced my pistol and then produced my rapier

    I said “Stand and deliver, or the devil he may take you”

     

    Later in the story, his lover betrays him, and Captain Farrell comes to arrest him and take him off to prison.

     

    Happy St Patrick’s Day!! ☘️Slainte! 🥃 ☘️
