Lyrics

[Verse 1] He took a Smith & Wesson down the corner And then he got 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 [Chorus] Oh, he rides He rides between The straits of love and hate The straits of love and love The straits of love abused Tonight! [Verse 2] Come around midnight They are laughing and playing games One bullet in the chamber And spinning 'round in circles to it's aim But nothing ever happens So they get drunk all weekend One hungover dirty Sunday morning They fight And then it starts again And he's gone [Chorus] Oh, he rides He rides between The straits of love and hate The straits of love and love The straits of love abused Tonight! [Verse 3] 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 [Chorus] Oh, he rides He rides between The straits of love and hate The straits of love and love The straits of love abused Tonight!
