Well, I be danged...I thought either Sammy Davis, Jr. wrote it or Tom Jones. I suppose that you do know that before he got into the "What's New, Pussycat" crap-trap, Ole Tom was a fantastic banjo picker and on his first (now, impossible to find) album called "Front Forch Pickin'", Tom did his version of "Bad to the Bone"!

Oh, yeah...Sammy did a cover of it also!
