I got no plans of my own
Baby I live to serve
When I hear that beating sound
You know I live to serve
Just as a blacksmith's furnace squeals
And the rail men groan
I'm every woman's man
I hear the drums of love
I hear the drums of love
I see the dark clouds overhead
I hear the drums of love
Beating make me wish I was dead
I keep my eyes peeled
You build a house of light
I'll learn to swim babe
Visit you every night
You give me shameless love
I'll show you heathen delight
Out in the Pasadena sun
A simple paradise
I'll keep my lips sealed
You just beat that drum
I live to serve babe
I hear the drums of love
I know the madness of love
Bring a madman's reward
See me live by the beat
Now watch me die by its sword
I'll learn to swim babe
You just beat that drum
I live to serve lately
I serve anyone
I hear the drums of love
I see the dark clouds overhead
I hear the drums of love
Beating make me wish I was dead
I hear the drums of love
I see the dark clouds overhead
I hear the drums of love
Beating make me wish I was dead
