The Gun Club - Straits Of Love And Hate lyrics

He took a Smith & Wesson down to the corner And then he took a ride He got out somewhere in Los Feliz In the evening time He rang her bell and pushed her through the door And onto the bed He took time to talk to her Copulating, a gun to her head And it was hot Oh, he rides He rides between the Straits of Love and Hate The Straits of Love and Love The Straits of Love abused Tonight Come around midnight They are laughing and playing games One bullet in the chamber And spinning 'round in circles to its aim But, nothing ever happens So, they get drunk all the weekend One hungover dirty Sunday morning They fight And then it starts again And he's gone Oh, he rides He rides between the Straits of Love and Hate The Straits of Love and Love The Straits of Love abused Tonight He was working at the docks, when he found out She took another man He left his job and caught a ride And decided to take a stand He put his iron between her legs And told her to love him again She threw her arms around him And then it started all over again And it was fine Oh, he rides He rides between the Straits of Love and Hate The Straits of Love and Love The Straits of Love abused Tonight (Repeat chorus)
