The Gun Club - Jack On Fire lyrics

rate me

I am like Jack, I am from southern land

I'm holding your happiness in my hand

the sun behind me is a sexual red

and all your bounty-hunting ghosts are dead

I am like Jack and I tell you this

I will be your lover and exorcist

In the stillness of the mosquito sunset

you will make love to me to your very best

Hey, hey, I'm a Jack On Fire

hey, hey, your lips kiss Jack on Fire

Way back in the Indian days

nothing could drive the heat away

drive the search and murder of lost enemies

drive deep into what is never seen

And like Jack, there is a heat to the fight

like a moth detects a heat to the light

and like Jack, I will covet everything that is you

because, the heat in you will temporarily do

Hey, hey, I'm a Jack On Fire

hey, hey, your lips kiss Jack on Fire

When you fall in love with me

we can dig a hole by the willow tree

then, I will fuck you until you die

bury you and kiss this town goodbye,

it will be unhappy, it will be sad

but, it will be understood that I am BAD!

so don't you go and lie to me

'cause everyday is judgement day with me
