Short Cut Draw Blood is the third studio album by the British musician Jim Capaldi, released by Island Records in 1975.

This was particularly evident in his native United Kingdom; the single "It's All Up to You" at number 27, released a year before the album, became his first top 40 hit there, only to be overshadowed the following year by his cover of "Love Hurts", which went all the way to number 4.
