Who Do You Love
by Ellas McDaniel a.k.a. Bo Diddley recording of 1956 from Bo Diddley's 16 All-Time Greatest Hits (Checker LP 2989) I walked 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? Who do you love? I've got a tombstone hand and a graveyard mind, I'm just twenty-two and I don't mind dyin' Who do you love? Who do you love? Who do you love? Who do you love? I rode around the town'n 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? The night was dark and the sky was blue, down the alley a house wagon flew Hit a bump and somebody screamed, you should'a 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, she said, "Ooo-eee Bo, I understand" Who do you love? Who do you love? Who do you love? Who do you love? _________ Note 1: house-wagon, alternatively "ice-wagon"
