Biography:
The Rubber Knife Gang is a metaphor for many things, but mostly an endearing label for a group of punks who might at first glance, seem a bit sketchy, but ultimately mean no harm.
The band of three weekend warriors, who got its start around the bonfires of Southwestern Ohio and Northern Kentucky, has truly come into its own. The Rubber Knife Gang sound is spreading fast and far. The word is out. And the songs keep flowing

G G5/F D
[Verse]
D A
Had a girl and I swore to be true
D A
Long red curls and eyes of blue
G D
But she had a little temper so what did I do
G G5/F D
Had to let her down slow
[Chorus]
D A
Got to let her down slow, my friend
D A
Because she's the kind of woman who'll shoot you dead
D D/F# G
Her heart ain't never gonna listen to her head
G G5/F D
You gotta let down slow
[Interlude]
[Verse]
D A
Met a girl, the small town type
D A
And she made me feel wrong, and she made me feel right
G D
And I tried to disappear before the morning light
G G5/F D
She just wouldn't let me go
D A
She told me she liked the way that I sang
D A
And wanted something more than a one night fling
G D
And I tried like hell to make the church bells ring
G G5/F D
It's time to let her down slow
[Chorus]
[Interlude - Verse chords]
[Verse]
D A
So I tried to tell her that I had someone
D A
As I laced my boots and prepared to run
G D
When from under her vest she pulled a loaded shotgun
G G5/F D
{And she} was aiming down low
[Chorus]
[Verse]
D A
You gotta let her down soft and slow
D A
Cause she's a redneck hair-trigger, this I know
G D
Her daddy and her brothers are the local po-po
G G5/F D
You gotta let her down slow
G G5/F D
You gotta let her down slow
G G5/F D
Gotta let her down, let her down, let her down slow (Repeat)
G G5/F D
You gotta let her down slow (Gotta let her down)
G G5/F D
You gotta let her down slow (Let her down slow)
G G5/F D
You gotta let her down slow (Gotta tell her no means no)
G G5/F D
You gotta let her down slow (Naw, don't treat her bad)
G G5/F D
You gotta let her down slow (Might be the best time she's ever had)
G G5/F D
You gotta let her down slow (No, don't treat her wrong)
G G5/F D
You gotta let her down slow (Come on, and you'll be long gone)
G G5/F D
You gotta let her down slow (Gotta let her down slow)
G G5/F D
[Chorus]
G G5/F D
Gotta let her down slow
G G5/F D
Gotta let her down slow
