Thin Line Between Love and Hate - The Persuaders

It’s 5 o’clock in the morning

And I’m just getting in, I knock on the door

A voice sweet and low says, who is it?

She opens up the door and lets me in

Never once does she say, where have you been?

She says, are you hungry?

Are you hungry, honey?

Did you eat yet?

Let me hang up your coat

And the woman tells me, pass me your hat

All the time she smiles, never raises her voice

It’s 5 o’clock in the morning

And I don’t give it a second thought

It’s a thin line between love and hate

Don’t think you can keep breakin' your woman’s heart

It’s a thin line between love and hate

An' she’ll sit back an' enjoy it

It’s a thin line between love and hate

She gon' fool you one day

The sweetest woman in the world

Can be the meanest woman in the world

If you make her that way, you keep on hurting her

She keeps being quiet

She might be holding something inside

That really really hurt you one day

Here I am laying in the hospital

Bandaged from feet to head

In a state of shock

Just that much from being dead

I didn’t think my woman could do something like this to me

I didn’t think she had the nerve, so here I am

I guess action speaks louder than words

It’s a thin line between love and hate

Don’t think you can keep treatin' your woman bad

It’s a thin line between love and hate

An' she won’t ever get mad

It’s a thin line between love and hate

She’s gonna fool you one day

It’s a thin line between love and hate

Every smilin' face ain’t a happy one
