Lyrics:

Work all day,
as men who know,
Wheels must turn to keep,
to keep the flow,

Build on up,
don't break the chain,
Sparks will fly,
when the whistle blows,

Never stop the action,
Keep it up, keep it up,

Work to the rhythm,
Live to the rhythm,
Love to the rhythm,
Slave to the rhythm,

Axe to wood,
in ancient time,
Man machine,
power line,

Fires burn,
heart beats strong,
Sing out loud,
the chain gang song,

Never stop the action,
Keep it up, keep it up,

Breath to the rhythm,
Dance to the rhythm,
Work to the rhythm,
Live to the rhythm,
Love to the rhythm,
Slave to the rhythm.
