Who Do You Love Lyrics
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 little walk with me, Arlene,
And tell me, who do you love?
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?
Who do you love?
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?
Who do you love?
Who do you love?
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?
Who do you love?
Who do you love?
Who do you love?
Arlene took me by my hand,
And she said ooowee bo, you know I understand.
Who do you love?
Who do you love?
Who do you love?
Who do you love?
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 little walk with me, Arlene,
And tell me, who do you love?
Who do you love?
Who do you love?
Who do you love?
Just 22 and I don’t mind dying.
Who do you love?
Who do you love?
Who do you love?
Take it easy arlene, don’t give me no lip,
Who do you love?
Who do you love?
Who do you love?
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?
Who do you love?
Who do you love?
And she said ooowee bo, you know I understand.
Who do you love?
Who do you love?
Who do you love?

The meaning of the lyrics are a mistery. 45 miles of barbed wire may refer to being in prison for a while, walking on the courtyard. An ice-wagon is a hearse, to transport dead bodies. It‘s a real rock ‘n roll classic: over 40 different artists have covered it.
@JumboXL thanks you really helped me (NOT REALLY)

Bo was asking: who are you, Arlene?
You are who you love.
It's about voodoo / hoodoo. Maybe the first mainstream song to cover what was, at the time, a rather risque subject.
