GIVE ME THAT BEAT 💙

[Intro – Upright Bass Only – 0:00–0:12] [Playful walking bass] [Boogie-Woogie Piano Enters – 0:12–0:25] [Finger snaps] [Female Trio] Ooh-wah, ooh-wah Doo-ba-doo-wah Aah… aah… [Verse 1 – Lead Female] The needle drops, the room comes alive, We catch the beat on a quarter to five. My heart says go when the band begins, I feel that rhythm underneath my skin. [Backing Trio] Ooh-wah! Here we go! Doo-ba-doo, don’t take it slow! [Pre-Chorus – Brushes and Clarinet Enter] Turn up the music, brighten the light, We’re gonna keep those shoes moving tonight. One little step and the whole world spins— Once we start, the good time begins! [Chorus – Brass Section Enters] Let’s dance, let’s dance, Let the music take a chance. Life’s good, can’t stop, Keep it swinging till we drop! Feel the ’40s, feel the rhythm, Hear that old-time heartbeat sing. Swing, swing, sing—la-la-la! I feel good—I can’t stop! [Backing Trio] Can’t stop! Won’t stop! Swing it right around the clock! [Instrumental Break 1 – 1:30–1:55] [Clarinet takes the melody] [Boogie piano answers] [Walking bass and brushed drums] [Short trumpet accents] [Female Trio] Doo-doo-doo-wah! Ba-da-ba-da-bah! Ooh-wah, ooh-wah La-la-la! [Verse 2 – Lead Female] The city glows like a silver moon, The whole street moves to a jumping tune. A twist to the left, then back to the right, We’re writing our story in rhythm tonight. No need to worry, no need to wait, The music is calling—it won’t be late. Take my hand, let your troubles go, The faster we dance, the brighter we glow! [Pre-Chorus – Saxophone Enters] Turn up the music, open the door, Give me that beat and then give me some more. Heel and toe, now spin me around— Nothing can stop us when we hear that sound! [Chorus – Full Vintage Big Band] Let’s dance, let’s dance, Let the music take a chance. Life’s good, can’t stop, Keep it swinging till we drop! Feel the ’40s, feel the rhythm, Hear that old-time heartbeat sing. Swing, swing, sing—la-la-la! I feel good—I can’t stop! [Backing Trio – Call and Response] Can you feel it? (Ooh, we feel it!) Can you swing it? (Aah, we swing it!) Can you sing it? (La-la-la!) Can you stop it? (No, no, no!)

[Bridge – Half-Time – 3:48–4:12] [Lead Female] Yesterday can fade away, Tomorrow doesn’t matter today. All I need is this melody, A little bit of swing to set me free. [Three-Part Female Harmony] Life is good when the music plays, We’ll keep dancing through the neon haze. Heart to heart and beat to beat, There’s no stopping these dancing feet! [Drum Fill and Brass Crescendo] [Final Chorus – Full Big Band and Synthesizers – 4:12–4:42] Let’s dance, let’s dance, Let the music take a chance.

[Repeat – Bigger Female Harmonies] Let’s dance! (Ooh, let’s dance!) Life’s good! (Aah, life’s good!) Swing, swing, sing—la-la-la! I feel good—I can’t stop!
