beat out my love

i'm like a ring tailed monkey

a-hangin' from a bamboo tree

i'm like a native in the jungle

as restless as i can be

and if i hear you stalkin' through the grass

i wanna get a message to you fast

i'm gonna pick up a log and a-beat out my love for you

i'm like an apeman tarzan swingin' from a long great vine

and i'm a-lookin' for you

so that i can make you mine

i would climb on a tree

so good and high

then let out with that tarzan cry

then i pick up a log and a-beat out my love for you

well

now that i'm in the jungle

i'll do as the natives do

i'll do things their way and act like it's nothing new

and if i see you sittin' in a cool glade

i'm gonna make the loudest sound ever made

'cause i'm gonna pick up a log and a-beat out my love for you

well

i'm gonna pick up a log and a-beat out my love for you

yeah

beat out my love for you

oh

yeah-yeah-yeah

honey you know

i'm gonna beat out my love for you
