See the people walking down the street
Fall in line just watching all their feet
They don’t know where they want to go
But they’re walking in time
D G
They got the beat, they got the beat
F C A
They got the beat, yeah they got the beat
A
All the kids just getting out of school
They can’t wait to hang out and be cool
Hang around ’til quarter after twelve
That’s when they fall in line
D G
They got the beat, they got the beat
F C A
They got the beat, yeah they got the beat

Go-go music really makes us dance
Do the pony puts us in a trance
do the watusi just give us a chance
That’s when they fall in line
D G
They got the beat, they got the beat
F C A
They got the beat, yeah we got it
