Lyrics to The Sidewinder / The Beat Goes On
Charleston was once the rage, uh huh
History has turned the page, uh huh
Mini skirts, the current thing, uh huh
Teenybopper is our newborn king, uh huh
And the beat goes on, the beat goes on
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 their baseball score
And the beat goes on, the beat goes on
Grandmas sit in chairs and reminisce
Boys keep chasing girls to get a kiss
Cars keep going faster all the time
The bums still cry, "Hey buddy, have you got a dime?"
And the beat goes on, the beat goes on
Drums keep pounding a rhythm to the brain
Oh, drums keep pounding a rhythm to the brain
The drums keep pounding a rhythm to the brain
Drums keep pounding a rhythm to the brain
La de da de de, la de da de da
History has turned the page, uh huh
Mini skirts, the current thing, uh huh
Teenybopper is our newborn king, uh huh
And the beat goes on, the beat goes on
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 their baseball score
And the beat goes on, the beat goes on
Grandmas sit in chairs and reminisce
Boys keep chasing girls to get a kiss
Cars keep going faster all the time
The bums still cry, "Hey buddy, have you got a dime?"
And the beat goes on, the beat goes on
Drums keep pounding a rhythm to the brain
Oh, drums keep pounding a rhythm to the brain
The drums keep pounding a rhythm to the brain
Drums keep pounding a rhythm to the brain
La de da de de, la de da de da
