Dave Matthews Band - Shake Me Like A Monkey Lyrics
The thing I like about you
The way you do what you do
The thing I like about you
God and the devil alone could not have made you up
So good just want to eat you up
Let me like the real thing
Lick your sticky fingers boy and sing for your dinner sing
Come on pretty babe make me lose my mind
Everybody get together gonna make love shine
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 believe we have the answer
Love me baby love me baby shake me like a monkey
forever I'm yours
I can't stop thinking about you
yeah yeah yeah
why would I want to
I like coffee with toast and jelly
But I'd rather be licking from your back to your belly
I think I'm going to
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 believe we have the answer
I've been searching for tonight
Love me baby love me baby shake me like a monkey
forever I'm yours
Cigarettes and coffee broken heart and being lonely little girls
And ponies are the things that go together
Yes and no you have to choose Romeo and Juliet the hang man and his noose
You and me would go together
Hope that it comes true
But I ain't waiting for the world to change
Gonna change the world for you
Come on pretty baby make you ose your mind
Everybody get together gonna make love shine
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 believe we have the answer
I've been searching for tonight
Love me baby love me baby shake me like a monkey
forever I'm yours
Come on everybody make me lose my mind
Everybody get together gonna make love shine

Dave Matthews Band Shake Me Like A Monkey Comments
I love this song "shake me "💖🐒💖🐒💖🐒
Thanks to my dad for playing this whole album every time we were in the car for more than 5 mins while I was growing up. Glad I know I picked up good taste in music. <3
Vidman 1992,, That Volume, You BRING IT Sun ! Thank You !
Sounds like Word Up by Cameo.
Who’s jamming this for Mardi Gras in 2019? NOLA has its paws all over this album.
I love this song i always listen to it
“ Do you know what it is , to feel the light of love inside you?”
When I first heard this song, the intro made me think it was going to be a cover of Cameo's "Word Up."
Dave Matthews band big whiskey
This is my favorite album of DMB!
This song reminds me of the song Word Up by Cameo.
I was about to say the same thing.
I heard this song last night and thought it was going to be a cover of Word Up.
Homeboys
Dave was so outspoken about apartheid in SA. I'm still waiting for him to speak out against the current day oppression of whites in SA from the anc and other thugs. Not to mention the near genocide being commited against white farmers
I love it
hey Anna
Playstation Home is how I came to know this song.
haha!! me too!! I wish it was still around.
Rashawn Ross was the perfect addition to the band.
Forever dancing with Groo....
one of their best albums
yeah dave matthews. i'm only 17 yet ive fallen for his touch in the art of music.not many bands have a saxohone and a violinist. my mom would listen to him in the car all the time. none of his songs get old. i could play his songs over and over and over. keep it up dave.
it's not that weird I'm only 13 and did it
im really happy to see parents still playing it for you guys to hear :D
I was doing the same thing at age 3!
Our parents know how to parent apparently
Why have I not heard this song before today? It's so good!
THIS IS SH1T
They should be called "Dave Matthews and his Super Band"
BADASS!
You have no soul.
ohhhh yeah
Great video! If anyone has a moment, please check out the Dave Matthews cover on my channel. Thank ya!
Uh none of us care
Don't listen to that person I've seen your videos and you're really good:) keep it up!
You have the best marching band ever.
BUSTED,,,,,,,,,,,,,
i love these two lines:
"god and the devil alone could not have made you up
two must have worked as one together"
Damn this song kicks!
saw this concert in the Gorge. It was amazing.
I can't think of a single DMB song that doesn't involve pussy
Best DMB album ever, even better than These Crowded Streets, which is a solid #2 for me.
For the 32 people that disliked this, you need to see a doctor
Wyldfire lol I love this song I love Dave Matthews yea take my soul in another place
powerful powerful performances on this album. they really infused their energy into this, probably for leroi. i always say they missed the guy so much they brought in 4 new instruments to fill his place
Perfectly Stated Thomas... Beautiful.
Im sitting on my legs now...is shaking of my head enough or am I dead aswel?
fills my soul
then you are
Its dave matthews. Of course its about sex :)
and strangely no booze mentioned this time 😏
It's quite obviously about sex... It's just poetically written.
If this song sucks, im a homosexual blackman on welfare.
The intro is ridiculous! Those horns are crazy!!!
Jk it's okay
This song sucks
Brian Cabrera you suck for saying this song sucks. Move along...
This song is a memorial to the groo grux king, whereas the album as a whole is about the grieving process for his loss. If you don't like it then dont listen to it. Disrespectful pricks.
I LOVE THIS SONG!!!!
thumbs up for the man shouting at the end!! haha!
Carter is a pack of HELL.
Good way or bad way?
replay...replay...REPLAY!!!!
This song makes no sense. Like, I can try to comprehend, but I just cannot
Carter Beauford is my favorite drummer alive.
Awesome stuff!
Your clothes melt off! Thats a steaming hot review! Even hotter if you look anything remotely like Miranda Kerr!! Phew!
my all time favorite song!! DMB is the hottest band and this song is the best song they've ever done. <3 My clothes melt off when I hear it.. ;)
3:57 YEAH!
18 people don't know music.
Such amazingly talented songwriters and musicians. These guys sparkle a warm fuss that invigorates my spirit. Albums like this make life special.
i remember this was on ps home and we would do the line, while i drank heavily.
thank you for your kind words stranger, all the best of this world to you also :)
I'm so happy for you- i truly hope that hapiness lasts for the bulk of your life!
Bartender please! Make mine a double...
THAT BRASS IS HOT
we are doing this song in my marcching band
i've been a fan for years but i just gotta share this... i love everything about this band.. their music, the fact that the band is multi-racial, their both honesty and modesty, their attitude, the fact that they've been together (except for LeRoi.. RIP) since the beginning of the band, the way they take care of each other.. not to mention Dave's ever so sexy lyrics and singing..without them my world would have been so much poorer... thank you DMB for the energy you have brought into my life :)
half my life I've been dreaming of meeting a man that would make me feel like this song goes and... he's just materialized :)
PSHome... ahhh, the good old days voting for this song and dancing on the plaza! Hell yes.
If you're not tapping your foot to this song, then you'd better check your pulse because you're obviously dead.
I wanna know who was on PSHome back then when Dave Matthews was rockin' the damn dancefloor in Central Plaza. Good Ol' Days! Had so much fun back then, now PSHome is ruined by Fam's, trolls, and internet thugs...dammit.
This is going to be the first dance song at my wedding <3 Because we roll like that.
same here. :-)
2012 tour!!!!
DO NOT TRY TO REVISE CHEMISTRY AND LISTEN TO THIS! THIS SONG IS TOO GOOD!

atlantic city caravan......best weekend of my life!! great people, great music AMAZING memories!!!
don't know why they aren't more popular... UGH.
Seriously, I do not understand how there can be 17 dislikes. This is a PHENOMINAL song.
@sdecker95 What is happening next year?!
anyone know any drummers that could teach u how to drum like that? lol
I'm shaking so much, I'm practically convulsing. Mindblowing song.
@sdecker95 I KNOW. haha. I seriously was kind of depressed because i had such a fucking awesome time there. Best weekend of my life hands down.
@sdecker95 Sarcasm ,man. I just got back from DMB Caravan at the Gorge, which by the way was fucking incredible. But yeah I hate the Jonas Brothers. Dave is one of my favorite groups
@Pharaoh43 we all know that the Jonas brothers aren't old enough to drink the amount of whiskey to do what dave does....it's just fact!
the horn parts = <3
2:40 - John Mayer diss
I'm playing this at my wedding.
@AngelsOfSilence6 but stil on a totally diffent continent, dick
@AngelsOfSilence6 Yes...i'll make sure to toast your Queen while i'm at it, Foreigner
This might be the most badass song the world has ever seen
how would your girlfriend react if you told her you went together like the hangman and his noose? just curious.
"i like my coffee with toast and jelly...but i'd rather be lickin' you from your back to your belly..." How f*ing kinky is that?!?!...GOD i <3 Dave Matthews.
