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)
