With Every Beat Of My Heart

sung by Little Jerry (Jerry Nelson)
and The Monotones (Christopher Cerf, Richard Hunt and Jeff Moss)


Monotones: Boom-thump
Hear my heart jump
Boom-thump
Hear my heart jump

Little Jerry: With every beat of my heart
I'm hoping, baby, that we'll never part
I promise, baby, I'll always be true
My heart is beating for you

Monotones: My heart is beating, it's beating for you

Little Jerry: Oh, every time that we meet
My little darling, I feel my heart beat
I promise you it was love from the start
With every beat of my heart

Monotones: With every beat of my heart

Little Jerry: I put my hand on my chest
I feel my heart beat, it's never at rest
Then when I see you, I feel my heart jump
It goes thump

Big Jeffy: Yeah

Little Jerry: Thump

Big Jeffy: Yeah, thumpity-thump-thump-thump

Little Jerry: My foolish heart cannot hide
Though you can't see it it's beating inside
I'm hoping, baby, that we'll never part
With every beat of my heart

Monotones: With every beat of my heart

(spoken)

Big Jeffy: My darling. My heart is beating just for you.
Pumping blood to all the parts in my body.
My knees and nose and my chin and toes and you can hear my heart beat.

(sung)

Little Jerry: It goes thump

Big Jeffy: Yeah

Little Jerry: Thump

Big Jeffy: Yeah

All: Thumpity-thump-thump-thump

Little Jerry: My foolish heart cannot hide
Though you can't see it it's beating inside
I'm hoping, baby, that we'll never part
With every beat of my heart

All: With every beat of my heart
