We Got the Beat

Glee Cast · Other Songs - Glee Cast

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

They got the beat

Yeah

They got the beat



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



They got the beat

They got the beat

Kids 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 it!



We got the beat

We got the beat

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

Wooooo!



We got the beat (x9)
