Jumpin Jack Flash (1986 Sound City Session) Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I was born in a crossfire hurricane
I would howl at night in the pourin’ rain
[Chorus]
But it’s alright, now
In fact, it’s a gas
Said it’s wuh-uh-uh-uh-alright
Said the Jumpin’ Jack Flash
It’s a gas, gas, gas
Whoo, yeah
Shuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-no, honey
[Verse 2]
I was raised by a toothless, bearded hag
I was down with a strap right ‘cross my back
[Chorus]
But it’s alright, now
In fact, it’s a gas
Said it’s alright
Jumpin’ Jack Flash
It’s a gas, gas, gas
Ooh, yeah
Shuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-no, honey
[Guitar Solo]
[Verse 3]
Slash was drowned, he was washed up, left for dead
I looked ’round, and there’s no crumbs left of bread
I looked down at my feet and saw they bled
Izzy was crowned with a spike right through his brain
[Chorus]
But it’s alright, now
In fact, it’s a gas
Said it’s wuh-uh-uh-uh-alright
Said the Jumpin’ Jack Flash
It’s a gas, gas, gas
Whoo, yeah
Shuh-nuh-nuh-nuh-no, honey
[Bridge]
(Jumpin’ Jack Flash, it’s a gas)
(Jumpin’ Jack Flash, it’s a gas)
(Jumpin’ Jack Flash, it’s a gas)
(Jumpin’ Jack Flash, it’s a gas)
[Outro]
Jumpin’ Jack Flash, it’s a gas
Jumpin’ Jack Flash, you know it’s a gas
Jumpin’ Jack, Jumpin’ Jack
I need a Jumpin’ Jack
Come on an’ bring it back
Jumpin’ Jack
That one’s for your Mama!
