Beat the Drum

I still hear the snares in the square

Colors ablaze in the evening

The air was still

Down the stormy hill

It's good to be young and daring

She was the pride of the summer that year

She was my sweetheart, my lady

We walked to Black Rock

And stopped by the Loch

It's good to be young and daring

It's good to be young

Beat the drum, beat the drum

Like a heartbeat, lonely and strong

Beat the drum, beat the drum

Like a heartbeat, lonely and strong

Beat the drum

Across the bay I still hear the strains

The two-step loud and blaring

We walked hand and hand

To the beat of the band

It's good to be young and daring

It's good to be young

Beat the drum, beat the drum

Like a heartbeat, lonely and strong

Beat the drum, beat the drum

Like a heartbeat, lonely and strong

Beat the drum

I still hear the snares in the square

Colors ablaze in the evening

She was the pride of the summer that year

It's good to be young and daring

It's good to be young and daring

It's good to be young

Beat the drum, beat the drum

Like a heartbeat, lonely and strong

Beat the drum, beat the drum

Like a heartbeat

Beat the drum, beat the drum

Like a heartbeat, lonely and strong

Beat the drum, beat the drum

Like a heartbeat, lonely and strong

Beat the drum, beat the drum

Like a heartbeat, lonely and strong

Beat the drum
