Giant Sand - Cover Magazine (25th Anniversary Edition)

The Beat Goes On

La-de-da-de-de, la-de-da-de-da

Drums keep pounding a rhythm to the brain
La-de-da-de-de, la-de-da-de-da

Charleston was once the rage, aha
History has turned the page, aha
Miniskirt's the current thing, aha
Teenybopper is our newborn king, aha
And the beat goes on, the beat goes on
La-de-da-de-de, la-de-da-de-da

The grocery store's the supermart, aha
Little girls still break their hearts, aha
Men keep on marching off to war
Electronically they keep a baseball score, aha
La-de-da-de-de, la-de-da-de-da
And the beat goes on, the beat goes on
And the beat goes on, the beat goes on
And the beat goes on

Drums keep pounding a rhythm to the brain
To the brain
To the brain
