Work all day as men who know
Wheels must turn 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)
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 times
Man machine, power line
Fires burn, hearts beat strong
Sing out loud the chain gang song

Never stop the action - keep it up (keep it up)
Never stop the action - keep it up (keep it up)
Breathe to the rhythm, dance to the rhythm
Work to the rhythm, live to the rhythm

Love to the rhythm, be slave the rhythm
This is my life, and I am what I am
Slave to the rhythm, and you walk to the rhythm
Love to the rhythm, slave to the rhythm
Love to the rhythm, be a slave to the rhythm
(keep it up, keep it up, keep it up, keep it up)
