BECAUSE I GOT into AC/DC after Kiss, I had already developed a heightened sense for sniffing out double entendres and testicle japes.

And unlike with the filthy Kiss tunes I walked around singing as a kid while being completely unaware of their meanings, I often had a pretty good idea what I was crooning with AC/DC — though I'm sure I didn't know "The Jack" was about V.D. until I conducted a much more scientific study of the band's lyrics.

With the ancient but forever childish AC/DC returning to Verizon Center tonight, I'm having my own personal tailgate by listening to the band's 10 most salacious songs, which are listed below. I only stopped at 10 because I need to get fitted for my schoolboy outfit. Please add to the filth in the comments; there are at least 20 more jams worthy of "Hustler's" letters section.

»: "Big Jack" from "Black Ice" (2008)
Key Lyric: "Big Jack, Big Jack / He said that he's the only one who got a full sack"

»: "The Jack" from "T.N.T." (1975)
Key Lyric: "But I should have known / That all the cards were comin' / From the bottom of the pack"

»: "Whole Lotta Rosie" from "Let There Be Rock" (1977)
Key Lyric: "She ain't exactly pretty / Ain't exactly small / Forty-two, thirty-nine, fifty-six / You could say she's got it all!"

»: "Heatseeker" from "Blow Up Your Video" (1988)
Key Lyric: "Getting ready to break / Getting ready to go / Get your shoes off and shake / Get your head down and blow"

»: "Girl's Got Rhythm" from "Highway to Hell" (1979)
Key Lyric: "The girl's got rhythm / She's got the backseat rhythm" & "You know she moves like sin / And when she lets me in / It's like liquid love"

»: "Love at First Feel" from "Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap" (1976)
Key Lyric: "I didn't know if you were legal tender / But I spent you just the same"

»: "Let's Get It Up" from "For Those About to Rock We Salute You" (1981)
Key Lyric: "Loose lips sink ships / So come aboard for a pleasure trip / It's high tide, so let's ride / The moon is rising and so am I"

»: "Sink the Pink" from "Fly on the Wall" (1985) and "Who Made Who" (1986)
Key Lyric: "Sink the pink, it's all the fashion / Drink the drink, it's old-fashioned"

»: "Guns for Hire" from "Flick of the Switch" (1983)
Key Lyric: "I'm a smooth operator, a big dictator / Gonna mark you with my brand"

»: "Big Balls" from "Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap" (1976)
Key Lyric: Some balls are held for charity / And some for fancy dress / But when they're held for pleasure / They're the balls that I like best"
