Shake Me Like A Monkey Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Ooh hot, the thing I like about you
Is the way you, way that you do
The thing I like about you, hah
God or the devil alone
Could not have made you up
The two must have worked as one, together
So good, just want to eat you up
Nothing like the real thing
Lick your sticky fingers, boy
And sing for your dinner sing

[Pre-Chorus]
Come on, pretty baby, make me lose my mind
Everybody get together, gonna make love shine

[Chorus]
Do you know what it is to feel
The light of love inside you
And all the darkness falls away?
If you feel the way I feel
Then I believe we have the answer
That I've been searching for tonight
Love me baby, love me baby
Shake me like a monkey, baby
Oh, forever I'm yours, yours, yours, yeah
Forever I am

[Verse 2]
I, I, I, can't stop thinking about you
Yeah, yeah, yeah, why would I want to?
I like my coffee with toast and jelly
But I'd rather be licking you from your back to your belly
I, I, I think that I'm going to

[Chorus]
Oh, do you know what it is to feel
The light of love inside you
And all the darkness falls away?
If you feel the way I feel
Then I believe we have the answer
That I've been searching for tonight
Love me baby, love me baby
Shake me like a monkey, baby
Oh, forever I'm yours, yours, yours, yeah
Forever I am

[Middle-Eight]
Cigarettes and coffee, broken hearts and being lonely
Little girls and ponies are the things that go together
Yes and no ,you have to choose, Romeo and Juliet, the hangman and his noose
You and me, we go good together
Kiss, kiss make a wish, hope that it comes true
But I ain't waiting for the world to change
Gonna change the world for you

[Pre-Chorus]
Come on, pretty baby, make me lose my mind
Everybody get together, gonna make love shine

[Chorus]
Do you know what it is to feel
The light of love inside you
And all the darkness falls away?
If you feel the way I feel
Then I believe we have the answer
That I've been searching for tonight
Love me baby, love me baby
Shake me like a monkey, baby
Oh, forever I'm yours, yours, yours, yeah
Forever I am
Yours baby
Hey, hey hey
Oh, oh, forever I am
Baby, yeah
Oh, oh, forever I am

[Outro]
Come on, pretty baby, make me lose my mind
Everybody get together, gonna make love shine

Is the first verse exactly as Dave wrote it? "The way that you do"

I listened and slowed down the song. Dave mumbles “ooh ha!” at the very beginning of the song so I added it to the lyrics. As for the rest of the verse I think the transcriber did a good job. As for if it’s exactly “how dave wrote it” I’m not sure. All we have is the studio version to go off of.
