Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Charleston was once the rage, uh-huh
History has turned a page, uh-huh
The mini skirt's the current thing, uh-huh
Teeny bopper is our newborn king, uh-huh
[Verse 2]
And the beat goes on
The beat goes on
[Verse 3]
Grocery store the supermart, uh-huh
Little girls still break their hearts, uh-huh
Men keep marchin' off to war
Electricly, they keep their baseball score
[Verse 4]
And the beat goes on
The beat goes on
[Verse 5]
Grandmas sit in chairs and reminisce
Boys keep chasin' girls to get a kiss
Cars keep goin' faster all the time
And bums still cry “hey buddy, have you got a dime?”
[Verse 6]
And the beat goes on
The beat goes on
[Verse 7]
Drums keep poundin' rhythm to the brain
Oh, drums keep poundin' rhythm to the brain
Drums keep poundin' rhythm to the brain
Drums keep poundin' rhythm to the brain
[Verse 8]
(La di-da-di-di)
