Jack the Ripper (Acoustic Version)

(album: B-Sides & Rarities - 2005)

I got a woman
She rules my house with an iron fist
Well I got a woman
She rules my house with an iron fist
She screams out Jack the Ripper
Every time I try to give that girl a kiss

Well I got a woman
She strikes me down with a fist of lead
Oh yeah
Well I got a woman
She strikes me down with a hand of lead
We bed in a bucket of butcher's knives
I awake with a hatchet hanging over my head

Well you know the story of the viper
It's long and lean with a poison tooth
Oh yeah
You know the story of the viper
It's long, it's lean, with a poison tooth
Well they're hissing under the floorboards
Hanging down in bunches from my roof
Oh yeah

Well, I got a woman
She just hollers what she wants from where she's at
Well I got a woman
She just hollers what she wants from where she's at
Big fists on her hips
Standing neat and arching back

Yeah I got a woman
She rules my house with an iron fist
Yeah I got a woman
She rules my house with an iron fist
She screams out Jack the Ripper
Every time I try to give that girl a kiss
Oh yeah
Oh yeah
Oh yeah
Oh yeah
Oh yeah
