The Beat Goes On

The beat goes on, the beat goes on
Hammers keep pounding a rhythm to the brain
La de da de de, la de da de da

Carpet was once the rage, uh huh
Wood flooring has turned the page, uh huh
The electric drills the current thing, uh huh
Ricky is our newborn king, uh huh

The beat goes on, the beat goes on
Hammers keep pounding a rhythm to the brain
La de da de de, la de da de da

The lumber store's the super mart, uh huh
Little dogs still keep up their barks, uh huh
And men still keep on sawing wood
Electrical wiring’s a nightmare in this hood.

The beat goes on, the beat goes on
Hammers keep pounding a rhythm to the brain
La de da de de, la de da de da

Plumbing has been a bad headache
Cold weather and ice have made us shake
But the work keeps going faster every day
When its finished we’ll all yell hooray!

The beat goes on, the beat goes on
Hammers keep pounding a rhythm to the brain
La de da de de, la de da de da
