That Beatin' Rhythm

You know, dancin' is a part of life

It's one of the thrills of young America

And young America has been responsible for

Setting most of the world's dance craze

We did the twist, the monkey, the duck

And now we're gonna do the skate

So c'mon, sock it to me

Alright, look out, here we go

Now there's that beat

And I must dance, oh yeah

Now there's that rhythm

That puts me in a trance, oh yeah

Now that beat and that rhythm just keep buildin' up

It's too hot for me to slow down

And my feet are filled with happiness

And I'm determined to dance it down

Now there's that groove

That makes me wanna move, oh yeah

Now that groove is filled with soul

And I can't help but lose control

Now that beat and that rhythm just keep buildin' up

It's too hot for me to slow down

And my feet are filled with happiness

And I'm determined to dance it down

Hey now, music is such an attraction

To move my feet is my only reaction

It's the only way to get satisfaction

Watch me now as I go into action

'Cause there's that beat again

And that rhythm too, oh yeah

Hey, if music makes you feel like I do

You gotta dance too, oh yeah

Now that beat and that rhythm just keep buildin' up

It's too hot for me to slow down

And my feet are filled with happiness

And I'm determined to dance it down

We're gonna do the skate, oh yeah

You know I feel great, oh yeah

We're gonna do the skate

Oh, watch me work

We're gonna do the skate, oh yeah

You know I feel great, oh yeah

We're gonna do the skate

Oh, watch me work
