I walked forty-seven miles of barbed wire, I got a cobra snake for a necktie

A brand new house on the road side, and it's a-made out of rattlesnake hide

Got a band new chimney put on top, and it's a-made out of human skull

Come on take a little walk with me baby, and tell me who do you love?

Who do you love?

Who do you love?


Around the town I use a rattlesnake whip, take it easy baby don't you give me no lip

Who do you love?

Who do you love?


I've got a tombstone hand and a graveyard mind, I'm just twenty-two and I don't mind dying

Who do you love?

Yeah, who do you love?

Oh, who do you love?


Now Arlene took a-me by my hand, she said "Lonesome George you don't understand,

who do you love?"

The night were dark and the sky were blue, down the alleyway a house wagon flew

Hit a bump and somebody screamed, you should've heard what I'd seen

Who do you love?

Who do you love?

Yeah, who do you love?

Oh, who do you love?


Yeah, I've got a tombstone hand in a graveyard mind, just twenty-two baby I don't mind dying

Snake skin shoes baby put them on your feet, got the goodtime music and the Bo Diddley beat

Yeah, who do you love?

Woah, who do you love?


I walked forty-seven miles of barbed wire, I got a cobra snake for a necktie

A brand new house on the road side, and it's made out of rattlesnake hide

Got a band new chimney put on top, and it's made out of human skull

Come on take a little walk with me child, tell me who do you love?

Yeah, who do you love?

Woah, who do you love?


Who do you love?

Woah, who?
