Capo 3rd fret
Standard (EADGBE)
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.
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.
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.
