See the people walking down the street;
 Fall in line just watching all their feet;
 They don't know where they wanna go;
 But they're walking in time;

 They got the beat;
 They got the beat;
 Yeah;
 They got the beat;

 See 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;

 Kids got the beat;
 They got the beat;
 They got the beat;
 Yeah;
 Kids 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 we fall in line;

 We got the beat;
 We got the beat;
 We got the beat;
 Yeah;
 We got the beat
 Everybody get on your feet
 We know you can dance to the beat
 Jumpin' - get down
 Round and round and round
