Lyrics:

[Verse 1]
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

[Chorus 1]
They got the beat
They got the beat
They got the beat
Yeah they got the beat

[Verse 2]
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

[Chorus 2]
They got the beat
They got the beat
Kids got the beat
Yeah kids got the beat

[Verse 3]
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

[Chorus 3]
We got the beat
We got the beat
We got the beat
Yeah we got it!

[Outtro]
(We got the beat)
(We got the beat)
(We got the beat)
Everybody get on your feet
(We got the beat)
We know you can dance to the beat
(We got the beat)
Jumpin', get down
(We got the beat)
Round and round and round

(We got the beat)
We got the beat
(We got the beat)
We got the beat
(We got the beat)
We got the beat
(We got the beat)
We got the beat
(We got the beat, we got the beat)
We got the beat
(We got the beat, we got the beat)
We got the beat!
