Actually, the versions done by The White Stripes, The Horrors, The Gruesomes, and The Black Lips are all based on "Jack the Ripper" by The One Way Streets, which has entirely different lyrics and instrumentation than "Jack the Ripper" by Screaming Lord Sutch. The only thing they have in common is the refrain of "Jack the Ripper, Jack the Ripper".
Just to set this straight, in chronological order (and probably with countless others in between: Screaming Lord Sutch, The White Stripes, The Horrors, The Black Lips
(although the last two could have been the other way around, not sure)
The Fuzztones do a mean version to!
