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 banned that stage, 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 their 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
