Gentleman Jack - O'Hooley & Tidow



Letra:


Behind her back she’s Gentleman Jack

A Yorkshire lady of renown

She’s ever so fine, won’t toe the line

Speak her name, the gentlemen frown


At Shibden Hall she had them all

The fairer sex fell under her spell

Dapper and bright, she held them tight

Handsome Anne seduced them well


Gentleman Jack, oh Gentleman Jack

Watch your back, you’re under attack

Their husbands are coming, you’d better start running

For nobody likes a Jack-the-Lass


Jack-the-lass, Jack-the-Lass

No-one likes a Jack-the-Lass

The code is cracked, your bags are packed

The knives are out for Gentleman Jack


Proud and stout and full of clout

She played the fellas at their game

Sharp of mind, she’s one of a kind

Her devilish ways the men couldn’t tame


Hidden away, revealed today

4 million words in diaries found

Once exposed in a baffling code

Lusty letters all leather bound


Gentleman Jack, oh Gentleman Jack

Watch your back, you’re under attack

Their husbands are coming, you’d better start running

For nobody likes a Jack-the-Lass


Jack-the-lass, Jack-the-Lass

No-one likes a Jack-the-Lass

The code is cracked, your bags are packed

The knives are out for Gentleman Jack


Behind her back she’s Gentleman Jack She's Gentleman Jack behind her back Behind her back she’s Gentleman Jack She's Gentleman Jack behind her back Behind her back she’s Gentleman Jack She's Gentleman Jack behind her back Behind her back she’s Gentleman Jack She's Gentleman Jack behind her back Gentleman Jack, oh Gentleman Jack Watch your back, you’re under attack Their husbands are coming, you’d better start running For nobody likes a Jack-the-Lass Jack-the-lass, Jack-the-Lass No-one likes a Jack-the-Lass The code is cracked, your bags are packed The knives are out for Gentleman Jack
