Cover art for Right Of Way lyrics by Von Bondies, The

I think it's about a guy who isn't successful with women (in the sense of relationships), he meets one who will hang around, however she doesn't respect or love him.

He thinks he's the one who has more business in seeking love (since he wants to love, not use and ignore) hence the right of way (he wants to leave and pass her by).

Second verse is about how she now wants to control his life and cut him off from other women who would clearly be better for him. She thinks he should feel guilty like he's the one who the user.

I think there's a bit of a "fake" relationship going on but he doesn't want to end it, he wants her to make the break.
