It's a thin line between love and hate
It's a thin line between love and hate
It's 5 o'clock in the morning
I'm just getting' in, I knock on the door
A voice sweet and low says (who is it?)
She opened up the door and let me in
Never once do 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"
The woman tells me, pass me your hat
All the time she smilin', never once 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
And she'll sit back and enjoy it
It's a thin line between love and hate
Yes it is, yes it is, between love and hate
She gon' fool you one day
The sweetest woman in the world
Could be the meanest woman in the world
If you make her that way
You keep on hurtin' her, she keeps being quiet
She might be holding something inside
That really really hurts you one day
Here I am laying in the hospital
Bandaged from feet to head
In the 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 the girl had the nerve, 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
And she won't ever get mad
It's a thin line between love and hate
Yes it is
She's gonna fool you one day
It's a thin line between love and hate
Every smilin' face ain't a happy one
