ARETHA FRANKLIN lyrics - Jumpin' Jack Flash

(Mick Jagger, Keith Richards)



I was born in a crossfire hurricane

And I howled at my ma in the driving rain

But it's all right now, in fact it's a gas

But it's all right

I'm Jumpin' Jack Flash, it's a gas, gas, gas



I was raised by a toothless, bearded hag

I was schooled with a strap right across my back

But it's all right now, in fact it's a gas

But it's all right

I'm Jumpin' Jack Flash, it's a gas, gas, gas



I was drowned, I was washed up and left for dead

I fell down, to my feet and I saw they bled

Yeah, sure and I frowned at the crumbs of a crust of bread, sure

Yeah, I was crowned with a spike right through my head

But it's all right now, in fact it's a gas

But it's all right

I'm Jumpin' Jack Flash, it's a gas, gas, gas
