Lyrics[]
Callin' 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
Dancing in Chicago (Dancing in the street)
Down in New Orleans (Dancing in the street)
In New York City (Dancing in the street)
All we need is music, sweet music (Music, sweet, sweet, music)
There'll be music everywhere (Sweet music everywhere)
There'll be swingin' and swayin' and records playing (Ooh...)
Dancing in the street
Oh, it doesn't matter what you wear (Ah...)
Just as long as you are there
So come on, ev'ry guy grab a girl (Ah...)
Everywhere around the world
There'll be dancing
They're dancing in the street (Dancing in the street)
This is an invitation across the nation
A chance for folks to meet
There'll be laughing, singing and music swinging
Dancing in the street
Philadelphia, PA (Dancing in the street)
Baltimore and D.C. now (Dancing in the street)
Can't forget the Motor City (Dancing in the street)
All we need is music, sweet music (Music, sweet, sweet, music)
There'll be music everywhere (Sweet music everywhere)
There'll be swingin' and swayin' and records playing (Ooh...)
Dancing in the street
Oh, it doesn't matter what you wear (Ah...)
Just as long as you are there
So come on, ev'ry guy grab a girl (Ah...)
Everywhere around the world
They're dancing
Dancing in the street (Dancing in the street)
Way down in L.A., every day, they're dancing in the street (Dancing in the street)
Let's form a big strong long, get on time, dancing in the street (Dancing in the street)
Across the ocean blue, me and you, dancing in the street (Dancing in the street)
