I walked 47 miles of barbed wire,
I got a cobra-snake for a necktie,
I got a brand new house on the roadside,
Made from rattlesnake hide,
I got a brand new chimney made on top,
Made out of a human skull,
Now come on take a walk with me, Arlene,
And tell me, who do you love?

Who do you love?
Who do you love?
Who do you love?


Tombstone hand and a graveyard mind,
Just 22 and I don’t mind dying.

Who do you love?
Who do you love?

I ride around town, with a rattlesnake whip,
Take it easy Arlene, don’t give me no lip,

Who do you love?

Night was dark, and the sky was blue,
Down the alley, the ice-wagon flew,
Heard a bump, and somebody screamed,
You should have heard just what I seen.

Whom do you love?


Who Do You Love
