  General Comment:This song's great. I'd guess it was about drug-dealing.

  General Comment:Those aren't quite the correct lyrics. And it's weird, because EVERY lyrics place has these, even the official White Stripes website. The actual lyrics are:
  
  "I can't walk the streets, now, to consolate my mind
  some pretty mama, she starts breaking down
  stop breaking down!
  a-stop breaking down
  The stuff I got is gonna bust your brains out
  well, it'll make you lose your mind
  
  You Saturday night women, you love to ape and clown
  You won't do nothing but tear a good man's reputation down
  Stop breaking down!
  Stop breaking down
  The stuff I got is gonna bust your brains out
  Well, it'll make you lose your mind
  
  I gave my baby the ninety-nine degree
  She jumped up a throwed a pistol down on me
  Stop breaking down
  Stop breaking down
  The stuff I got is gonna bust your brains out
  Yeah, it'll make you lose your mind."
  
  Maybe if I just get ONE lyrics websites, the rest will realize they're all wrong ....

  General Comment:The main riff has a cool, jerky, halting style to it. Ridiculously cool song.
