Lyrics from the MIDI .kar music file

{B} 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.

{M} The charleston was once the rage, uh huh,
{F} History has turned a page, uh huh.

{M} The mini skirts the current thing, uh huh.
{F} Teeny bopper is our new born king, uh huh.

{B} And the beat goes on,
And the beat goes on.

The drums keep pounding a rythym
To the brain.
La de da de dee, la de da de do.

{M} The grocery store does supermart, uh huh.
{F} Little girls still break their heart, uh huh.

{M} And men still keep marching off to war.
{F} Electriclly they keep a baseball score.

{B} 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.

{M} Grandma's sit in chairs and reminisce.
{F} Boys keep chasing girls to get a kiss.

{M} The cars keep on going faster all the time.
{F} Bums still cry:
{F} "Hey, buddy, have you got a dime?"

{B} And the beat goes on,
And the beat goes on.

Drums keep pounding a rythym
To the brain.
La de da de dee, la de da de da.

{M} And the beat goes on,
{F} Yes the beat goes on.
{M} And the beat goes on,

{F} And the beat goes on.
{B} The beat goes on,
And the beat goes on.
