BEAT OF A HEART
ONE HUNDRED THOUSAND IN ANY DAY
ONE LITTLE DRUMMER KEEPS TIME OK
ELECTRIC PUMPINGS BENEATH YOUR SKIN
SET UP A RHYTHM DOWN DEEP WITHIN
IT’S ALL IN THE BEAT OF A HEART
LAYING DOWN A GROOVE FROM THE START
YA NEVER SEE IT, BUT YOU CAN FEEL IT
FEELING THE BEAT OF A
INSIDE THE HEAT OF A
THE STEADY BEAT OF A HEART
IT’S AUTOMATIC AND SO ROUTINE
PULSING MAGIC SO PERFECTLY
HOW DOES IT HAPPEN? IS IT LOVE?
FOR THE BELIEVERS, IT COMES FROM ABOVE
IT’S ALL IN THE BEAT OF A HEART
LAYING DOWN A GROOVE FROM THE START
YA NEVER SEE IT, BUT YOU BELIEVE IT
BELIEVE THE BEAT OF A
THE MOJO HEAT IN A
THE TRUSTED BEAT OF A HEART
AND WHEN IT’S OVER, THE OL’ TICKER’S GONE
HEAD DOWN THE ROAD TOWARD A NEW DAWN
BUT YA REMEMBER ALL THAT HAS BEEN
UNBROKEN CIRCLE THAT COMES ROUND AGAIN

Hello Mikey,
And they’ll be no nodding in this class. We like the vibe, too. The electric rhythm playing reminds me of Barry Gibbs on Jive Talkin’.
Wrote and recorded this song in 1984 in Paul Carriveau’s basement on a very out of tune piano.
Thanks, Mikey.

Wow! I love this tune. I can use it for class warm up. Great drum work, Ringo. Perfect with your strong vocals. Great ending. Wish my heartbeat was even like that. The beat goes on………..and on. So glad you returned to this song.

Hey Carole,
There’s a lot of ancient ideas that come back on the scene in these 70 or so originals. Yours marks the first Ringo compliment, and my first class warm-up.
Thanks for listening/liking and the encouragement.

Hi Tom,
Great song, great percussion. Reminds me of my own life, (even all our lives) how things can change in an instant.

Things good and bad can happen quickly, that’s for sure.Glad you relate to it; kinda what it’s all about.
Thanks for listening.
