Who Do You Love
Chuck Berry & Bo Diddley Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

I walk forty-seven 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?

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 twenty-two and I don't mind dying

Who do you love?
Who do you love?
Who do you love?
Who do you love?

I rode a lion to town, used 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 ooo-wee, Bo, you know I understand

Who do you love?
Who do you love?

Who do you love?
Who do you love?

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Chuck Berry & Bo Diddley's song "Who Do You Love" describe a character who appears to be larger than life, boasting about his possessions and experiences, including walking 47 miles of barbed wire, using a cobra snake as a necktie, owning a house made of rattlesnake hide, and having a chimney made out of a human skull. He asks Arlene to join him on a walk and poses the question, "Who do you love?" The character also mentions a "Tombstone hand and a graveyard mind," indicating that he is not afraid of death at the young age of 22. He continues to describe using a lion and a rattlesnake whip to get around, while warning Arlene not to give him any lip. The lyrics end with a dark and suspenseful scene of someone screaming and the singer asking Arlene again, "Who do you love?"

Although the lyrics themselves are ambiguous and open to interpretation, many have seen them as a representation of power, freedom, and rebellion. The character in the song is unapologetic and unwilling to conform to societal norms, choosing instead to live life on his own terms. The question posed repeatedly throughout the song, "Who do you love?" may also be seen as a challenge to society's expectations of conformity and obedience.

Line by Line Meaning

I walk forty-seven miles of barbed wire
I have been through a lot of difficult situations

I use a cobra snake for a necktie
I adorn myself with dangerous things

I got a brand new house on the roadside
I have acquired a new home

Made from rattlesnake hide
My house is made of exotic materials

I got a brand new chimney made on top
I have a new chimney on my roof

Made out of a human skull
It is made from a gruesome material

Now come on take a walk with me, Arlene
I invite Arlene to accompany me

And tell me, who do you love?
I want to know who Arlene loves

Tombstone hand and a graveyard mind
I have a tough exterior and a dark personality

Just twenty-two and I don't mind dying
I am young but unafraid of death

I rode a lion to town, used a rattlesnake whip
I have unconventional methods of transportation and discipline

Take it easy Arlene, don't give me no lip
I urge Arlene to be calm and not argue with me

Night was dark, but the sky was blue
The night was ominous but the sky was clear

Down the alley, the ice-wagon flew
I saw something strange happening in the alley

Heard a bump, and somebody screamed
I heard a loud noise and someone shouting in agony

You should have heard just what I seen
The sight was incredibly shocking

Arlene took me by my hand
Arlene held my hand

And she said ooo-wee, Bo, you know I understand
She sympathizes with me and understands my perspective

Who do you love?
The dominant question being asked throughout the song, asking the listener to reflect on who they truly love.

Tombstone hand
And a graveyard mine
Just 22
And I don't mind dying

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

You should have heard just what I've seen

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?

Respectfully disagree. Black artists were coming into the white scene but black musicians could make $100 a night, playing in a club that housed all the great black musicians, in the 1920s and 1930s. Those black musicians were the cream of the crop. Of course the white elitists wanted them segregated but music is not segregated. Later on, 12 or 13 year old STEVIE RAY VAUGHN asked ALBERT KING, almost every night to please let him sit in with KINGS' set. They became great friends.

Every time I hear this song I get chills. Just the very question, "Who Do You Love" is enough to stop me in my tracks, and question my priorities in life.
In the Hard Rock Cafe in Manhattan, I was out with friends celebrating my High School Graduation. There, right next to our table, was a statue of the Buddha, surrounded by a Cross, some money, an office building, pictures of people. In the center, in what I remember to be letters 100 stories high but probably no more than 2 feet tall were the words, "Who Do You Love".
When I hear this song, especially this version which has Bo Diddley repeating the questions so many times so early in the song, I am transported back to the moment I saw it, being struck by the question, getting the reference, and recognizing the significance that the answer would hold for the rest of my life.

That’s right! My cousin, who was almost 10 years older than I, had his own little band in the late ‘50’s. I remember sitting in their little house in the living room listening to them play Bo Diddley songs. My beloved cousin bought me some of Bo’s 45 records which I still have today, terribly scratched but that’s okay, that means I played them a lot! I will never part with them. Loved the Bo Diddley sound then and still do. Sadly, He never received the accolades he deserved.

All of hard rock is built on the foundation of Bo! From "Ring Ring Goes The Bell" to "Good Golly Miss Molly" to "Hound Dog" to "Only The Lonely", it was all good music, but it was light, happy, easy going! Aaaand then Bo showed up.. Oh yeah...All of a sudden, some big bad dude is walking 47 miles of barbed wire, wearing cobra snake neckties and living in a nice new house with a chimney made of human skulls! YES!! Power chords, that shave & a haircut driving beat, cool, tough lyrics...rock was never the same and yet, somehow, Bo NEVER got the recognition he deserved! I saw him 3 times, and he was AWESOME! Forget the egos of Chuck & Little Richard. Couldn't have been nice, the band LOVED him & had fun with him, he'd come over to the edge of the stage so I could get some great action shots of his poses (he did it for everyone). For me, the greatest of the founding fathers!

The local Classic Rock station only plays the George Thorogood version of "Who Do You Love?". They also overplay Led Zep's "Whole Lotta Love" instead of playing Muddy Waters. This is REAL classic rock...

@natetheguitarkid

8y↑1

+heffernantj this is blues rock roll, theres a chance youll catch it on those types of station. Classic rock is widely accepted as 70s and 80s rock. So thats why

@heffernantj

8y↑1

Naw. I just have AM/FM radio and live in the south, so most of the stations are pop country or Christian. No oldies station and only a couple classic rock stations, which used to play stuff from the 1960s like Dylan and The Byrds, but don't anymore...

@heffernantj

8y↑2

Anyways, if they can play the George Thorogood version of "Who Do You Love" and call it Classic Rock, then they can play this and call it Classic Rock. Also, when I was in high school in the early to mid 1990's, they didn't play U2, Bon Jovi, or Nirvana (or anything else from the 80's or early 90's) on the classic rock station. They played "Like a Rolling Stone", "Turn! Turn! Turn!" and other classic rock tunes from the mid-1960's. What gets played on the classic rock stations has changed over time. They never really did have room for black musicians, though. They just play the crappy covers by guys like George Thorogood. Radio was more integrated before I was born...

@heffernantj

8y↑1

You don't have to take my word for it that radio used to be more integrated. Ask someone from your family who listened to the radio in the 1950s and 60s and they will tell you that they played different genres and music by black and white artists back to back to back. And the heyday of there being mixed racial groups with an eclectic sound was in the late 1960s - early 1970s...

Classic Rock seems to be whatever is 20 years old or older, so your definition of Classic Rock will be obsolete in 10-20 years, suckah...

@heffernantj

8y↑2

If you consider modern pop and c(rap) real music, then ya it's diverse, but it all sounds like repetitive horse shit with the vocals run through a computer to me. And gangster rap is just black men talking about killing other black men, so that's just swell. I don't dislike George Thorogood cuz he's white. I dislike him cuz he sucks compared to John Lee Hooker or Bo Diddley. I think what we can agree on is that Bo Diddley is dope as hell and we should just shake hands over that...

indeed. the second-best cover version imho was the one done by juicy lucy (formerly known as the misunderstood) in february 1970. the twelve string guitar playing by glenn ross campbell (no, not that glen cambell!) is simply out of this world.
