The Beat Goes On Lyrics

The Beat Goes On:Sonny And Cher.
#6 in 1967.
CHORUS: (Capo 3rd fret for original.)
The beat goes on, the beat goes on.
Drums keep pounding rhythm to the brain.
La de da de de...la de da de da.
#1.
Charleston was once the rage, uh huh.
History has turned the page, uh huh.
The mini skirts the current thing, uh huh.
Teenybopper is our newborn king, uh huh.
CHORUS:
The beat goes on, the beat goes on.
Drums keep pounding rhythm to the brain.
La de da de de...la de da de da.
#2.
The grocery store's the super mart, 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.
CHORUS:
The beat goes on, the beat goes on.
Drums keep pounding rhythm to the brain.
La de da de de...la de da de da.
#3.
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?'
CHORUS:
The beat goes on, the beat goes on.
Drums keep pounding rhythm to the brain.
La de da de de...la de da de da.
A sixties smash from Kraziekhat.
