Artist: nick cave
Song: jack the ripper
I got a woman
She rules my house with an iron fist
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, well, I got a woman
She strikes me down with a fist of lead, oh yeah
Oh, well, I got a woman
She strikes me down with a hand of lead
Oh, we bed in a bucket of butcher's knives
I awake with a hatchet hangin' over my head
Oh, well, you know the story of the viper
It's long and lean with a poison tooth, oh yeah
Oh, well, you know the story of the viper
It's long, it's lean, it's got a poison tooth
Well, they're hissing under the floorboards
Hangin' down in bunches from my roof, oh yeah
Oh, well, I got a woman
She just hollers what she wants from where she's at, oh yeah
Oh, well, I got a woman
She just hollers what she wants from where she is at, oh yeah
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, oh yeah
Oh yeah, oh yeah
