Calling out around the world Are you ready for a brand new beat Summer's here and the time is right For dancing in the street They're dancing in Chicago Down in New Orleans In New York City All we need is music, sweet music There'll be music everywhere There'll be swinging and swaying and records playing Dancing in the street
Oh it doesn't matter what you wear Just as long as you are there So come on every guy grab a girl Everywhere around the world They'll be dancing They're dancing in the street
It's just an invitation across the nation A chance for folks to meet There'll be laughing and singing and music swinging Dancing in the street Philadelphia, PA Baltimore and D.C. now Can't forget the Motor City All we need is music, sweet music There'll be music everywhere There'll be swinging and swaying and records playing Dancing in the street
Oh it doesn't matter what you wear Just as long as you are there So come on every guy grab a girl Everywhere around the world
They're dancing They're dancing in the street Way down in L.A Every day They're dancing in the street
Let's form a big strong line Get in time We're dancing in the street Across the ocean blue, me and you We're dancing in the street
