Bum-bum, bum-bum
I'm a-gonna' tell you how it's gonna' be (Bum-bum, bum-bum)
You’re gonna' give your love to me (Bum-bum, bum-bum)
I wanna love you night and day (Bum-bum, bum-bum)
You know my love will not fade away (Bum-bum, bum-bum)
Well, you know my love will not fade away (Bum-bum, bum-bum)
Bum-bum, bum-bum
Bum-bum, bum-bum
Bum-bum, bum-bum
My love a-bigger' than a Cadillac (Bum-bum, bum-bum)
I try to show it, and you driving me back (Bum-bum, bum-bum)
Your love for me has got to be real (Bum-bum, bum-bum)
For you to know-a' just how I feel (Bum-bum, bum-bum)
A love for real'll not fade away (Bum-bum, bum-bum)
