You cant stop an avalanche
As it races down the hill
You can try to stop the seasons
But ya know you never will
And you can try to stop my
dancin' feet
But i just cannot stand still
Cause the world keeps spinnin'
Round and round
And my heart's keeping time
To the speed of sound
I was lost til i heard the drums
Then i found my way
Cause you can't stop the beat
5 6 7 8
Ever since this old world began
A woman found out if she shook
it She could shake up a man
And so i'm gonna shake and
shimmy it
The best that i can today
'Cause you cant stop
The motion of the ocean
Or the sun in the sky
You can wonder if you wanna
But i never ask why
And if you try to hold me down
I'm gonna spit in your eye and say
That you cant stop the beat
You can't stop a river
As it rushes to the sea
You can try and stop the
hands of time
But ya know it just can't be
And if they try to stop us Artie
I'll call the N Double A C P
Cause the world keeps spinning
Round and 'round
And my heart's keeping time
To the speed of sound
I was lost til i heard the drums
Then i found my way
Cause you can't stop the beat
Ever since we first saw the light
A man and woman liked to shake it
On a saturday night
And so i'm gonna shake
and shimmy it
With all my might today
'Cause you cant stop
The motion of the ocean
Or the rain from above
You can try to stop the paradise
What I'm dreamin' of
But you cannot stop the rhythm
Of two hearts in love to stay
Cause you cant stop the beat
You can't stop today
As it comes speeding
down the track
Child yesterday is hist'ry
And it's never coming back
'Cause tomorrow is a brand new day
And it don't know white from black
Cause the world keeps spinning
Round and 'round
And my heart's keeping time
To the speed of sound
I was lost til i heard the drums
Then i found my way
'Cause you cant stop the beat
Ever since we first saw the Sun
A man and woman liked to shake it
when the day is done
And so i'm gonna shake and
shimmy it
and have some fun today
'Cause you cant stop
The motion of the ocean
Or the rain from above
You can try to stop the paradise
What I'm dreamin' of
But you cannot stop the rhythm
Of two hearts in love to stay
Cause you cant stop the beat
You can't stop the beat
You can't stop the beat
