AC/DC – The Jack

  General Comment:I first heard this song when i was five. My dad let me listen to it because he knew that I had no idea what it meant (I didn't) I listened to it today again (I am 12) and I just realized.... looked up the lyrics and I was right. ACDC was my all time favorite band when i was a 5-9. I never knew what any of the words were... I also just recently learned how to play poker. But then I listened to the If You Want Blood Version and realized it was alot more explicit...
  
  I made her cry
  I made her scream
  I curdled her cream
  
  That's Alot different than the High Voltage version.

  General Comment:I think this song is talking about a transexual, and her jack is her dick! He looks rather surpised to find out she has the "jack"

    I've heard at least two versions where, after saying "she's got the jack" a dozen times, he screams "gonorrhea!" Song's about an STD, not the crying game. LOL

  General Comment:I think this song is about someone (Bon Scott) and him being played by a woman, a gold digga.

  General Comment:"She was number 999 on the cCLINICAL list" meaning she had STD and was going to the clinic.
  
  The "JACK" is another word for clap.
  
  Total Blues riff turned into Rock.

  General Comment:I totally thought this was just about poker. After reading the lyrics though it does make sense.

  General Comment:Watch a live performance of this song, Brian pretty much makes it obvious that this song is about a chick with an STD.. I really don't think its more then a funny song with a play on words.. I guess you can find other meanings but its kind of a strech.

  General Comment:Originally titled "The Clap," the song is about a woman with whom the singer has had sexual relations, only to later learn that she has, and has infected him with, gonorrhea. As with its title, "The Jack" uses playing card metaphors to allude to the venereal disease, genitalia, and sexual activity, but originally featured more straightforward lyrics that were often used by Scott (and replacement singer Brian Johnson) at live concerts.
