Lyrics

[Verse 1]
It's a thin line
It's five o'clock in the morning
And I'm just gettin' in
I knock on the door and
A voice sweet and low says
[Verse 2]
Who is it
She opens up the door and let me in
Never do she once say, "Sir, where have you been?"
No, she says "Are you hungry?"
Are you hungry honey?
Did you eat yet?
[Verse 3]
Let me hang up your coat, your coat, your coat
And the woman tells me pass me your hat too
All the time she smiles, never raises her voice
It's five o'clock in the morning
[Verse 4]
It's a thin line between love and hate
It's a thin line between love and hate
It's a thin line between love and hate
[Verse 5]
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'll really really hurt you one day
[Verse 6]
Here I am laying in the hospital
Bandaged from feet to head
You see I'm in the state of shock baby
Just that much from being dead yeah
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
[Verse 7]
It's a thin line between love and hate
It's a thin line
It's a thin line between love and hate
It's a thin line between love and hate
It's a thin line between love and hate
Oh lady
[Verse 8]
The sweetest woman in the world
Can be the meanest woman in the world
If you make her that way (Her that way)
You keep on hurting her, she keeps being quiet
She might be holding something inside
That could really hurt you one day
[Verse 9]
It's a thin line between love and hate
It's a thin line between love and hate (its a thin line)
It's a thin line between love and hate yeah
It's a thin line between love and hate
It's a thin line (it's a thin line)
Between love and hate (you know it is)
It's a thin line
Shoobie-dab, shoobie-dab, shoobie-dab thin line
[Verse 10]
It's a thin line (it's a thin line)
Between love and hate (you know it is)
It's a thin line
Shoobie-dab shoobie-dab shoobie-dab thin line
It's a thin line
[Verse 11]
I ain't gonna never cross your line yeah
Between love and hate (I ain't never want to do you no wrong)
It's a thin line (I said I won't come five o clock in the mornin')
(No more, you never keepin me to ever step in the door babe)
It's a thin line between love and hate
(I'm always comin' into bed, I'm never-ever, ever comin' late)
It's a thin line
Shoobie-dab shoobie-dab shoobie-dab thin line
