I always assumed it was about sex. I found a couple of websites where people discuss what they think it means. It could be about drugs. It could be about VietNam.

The guy's a rock star, and he's gonna do what he wants to do on the road and she can't stop him...meaning, he's gonna do whoever he wants when he wants. the road he cruises is a b*tch, so he's gonna do what he wants to do. She thought she could leave him, and show him, and get him to change his act, but it didn't work. She can't "turn him around."

Now, he's got her in a "stranglehold", meaning her little attempt to put him in his place didn't work and he's in control of the relationship. Nobody got raped or beaten. He doesn't literally strangle her or crush her face.

Stranglehold is one of the best songs that the Nuge ever did. Yes, it tends to get much airtime compared to his others, but I figure that the length of the song and the way it is performed makes up for that. I think it's incredible. I'll be a Nugent fan until the day I die.

The last part of the song if the read all the lyrics sounds like a threat...she doesn't have to die or (go) she can come on up
