I walk 47 miles of barbed wire, I use 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?
Tombstone hand and a graveyard mine, Just 22 and I don’t mind dying. Who do you love?
I rode around the town, use a rattlesnake whip, Take it easy arlene, don’t give me no lip, Who do you love?
Night was dark, but 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. Who do you love?
Arlene took me by my hand, And she said ooowee bo, you know I understand. Who do you love?
