The beat goes on, the beat goes on. |
|
Drums keep pounding a rhythm to the brain. |
|
La de da de de, la de da de da. |
|
Charleston was once the rage, uh huh. |
|
History has turned the page, uh huh. |
|
The miniskirt's the current thing, uh huh. |
|
Tennybopper is our newborn king, uh huh. |
|
And the beat goes on, the beat goes on. |
|
Drums keep pounding a rhythm to the brain. |
|
La de da de de, la de da de da. |
|
The grocery store's the supermart, uh huh. |
|
Little girls still break their hearts, uh huh. |
|
And men still keep on marching off to war. |
|
Electrically they keep a baseball score. |
|
And the beat goes on, the beat goes on. |
|
Drums keep pounding a rhythm to the brain. |
|
La de da de de, la de da de da. |
|
Grandmas sit in chairs and reminisce |
|
Boys keep chasing girls to get a kiss. |
|
The cars keep going faster all the time. |
|
Bums still cry 'Hey buddy, have you got a dime?' |
|
And the beat goes on, the beat goes on. |
|
Drums keep pounding a rhythm to the brain. |
|
La de da de de, la de da de da |
