Woman in Chains
Wild Dogs Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Gotta funny feeling down deep inside
I wanna meet the creature
Roughen up the ride
Dont try to hold her she ll shoot you up in flames
You want satisfaction
The bitch is so insane
You! you′re in the rough tonite
You! you wont survive the night
With a woman in chains
She gonna eat you up alive
You! you wont survive the night

Wrap you up in leather wont let ya go
Lock you in a dungeon
You know your not alone
Shes got an itchy trigger
Waitin to be pulled
Like jack the ripper-
Out of control
You! You're in the rough tonite
You! won′t survive the night
With a woman in chains
She gonna eat you up alive
Woman in chains woman in chains
Won't survive the night
Woman in chains
Woman in chains




Woman in chains
Woman in chains

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Wild Dogs' song "Woman in Chains" depict a rough and dangerous encounter with a powerful and potentially deadly woman. The singer expresses a desire to meet this creature and experience the excitement and danger of being with her. He warns that trying to hold her will only result in fiery destruction, and that being with her is akin to being in chains. The woman is described as having an insatiable desire for satisfaction and a violent nature, which is compared to that of Jack the Ripper. The singer predicts that anyone who spends the night with this woman will not survive.


The lyrics are a vivid portrayal of the dangerous allure of forbidden and risky experiences. The woman in chains represents the darker side of desire, the part that can consume and destroy if not handled carefully. The lyrics suggest that for some, the thrill of danger and the excitement of being with someone who is unpredictable and powerful is worth the risk of being consumed by that same power.
