What's the song that Eddie Murphy sings in Trading Places during the jacuzzi scene?

The scene is shortly after the line "You ain't gonna jacuzzi nobody. I knew you guys was faggots."

The lyrics are "When you think of love does your heart beat...[round and round?]..."

Did he ad-lib them? Or is it an actual song?

I know how sad I am, thank you very much

Great question!

Given his well known "James Brown in the Hot Tub" skit on SNL I always thought it was a line from a James Brown number, but was never sure.

Jeez! Nobody? Nobody?

Sorry Jofus - I'll keep trying, even if the rest of them are philistines.
