The beat goes on
The beat goes on
The drums keep pounding a rythym
To the brain
La de da de dee la de da de da
The charleston was once the rage uh uh
History has turned a page uh uh
The mini skirts the current thing uh uh teeny bopper is our new born king uh uh
And the beat goes on
The beat goes on
The drums keep pounding a rythym to the brain
La de da de dee la de da de da
The grocery store does supermart uh uh
Little girls still break their heart uh uh
And men stil keep marching off to war
Electriclly they keep a baseball score
And the beat goes on the beat goes on drums keep pounding a ryhym to the brain
La de da de dee la de da de da
Grandma's sit in chairs and reminisce
Boy keep chasing girls to get a kiss
The cars keep on going faster on 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 rythym to the brain
La de da de dee la de da de da
And the beat goes on yes the beat goes on
And the beat goes on the beat goes on and the beat goes on the beat goes on
