Lyrics of If You Want Blood (You've Got It) by AC/DC

verse

It′s criminal
There ought to be a law
Criminal
There ought to be a whole lot more
You get nothing for nothing
Tell me who can you trust
We got what you want
And you got the lust

chorus

If you want blood, you've got it
If you want blood, you′ve got it
Blood on the streets, blood on the rocks
Blood in the gutter, every last drop
You want blood, you've got it
Yes, you have

verse

It's animal
Livin′ in a human zoo
Animal
The shit that they toss to you
Feeling like a Christian
Locked in a cage
Thrown to the lions
On the second page

chorus

If you want blood, you′ve got it
If you want blood, you've got it
Blood on the streets, blood on the rocks
Blood in the gutter, every last drop
You want blood, you′ve got it
Aw!
Oh, positive

bridge

Blood on the rocks
Blood on the streets
Blood in the sky
Blood on the sheets

hook

If you want blood
You've got it
I want you to bleed for me

chorus

If you want blood (you′ve got it)
If you want blood (you've got it)
If you want blood (you′ve got it)
If you want blood (you've got it)
If you want blood (you've got it)
If you want blood (you′ve got it)
If you want blood (you′ve got it)
If you want blood (you've got it)

outro

(If you want blood, you′ve got it) yeah
(If you want blood, you've got it) yeah, yeah
(If you want blood, you′ve got it) yeah
(If you want blood, you've got it) oh
If you want blood (you′ve got it)
If you want blood (you've got it)
If you want blood (you've got it)
If you want blood
