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 the New Orleans 

In New York city 



All we need is music, sweet music 

they'll be music everywhere

they'll be swinging and swaying, records playing 

dancing in the street, oh 



It doesnt matter what you wear 

just as long as you are there

so come on every guy grab a girl 

everywhere around the world 

dancing in the street, oh



It's an invitation across the nation 

a chance for the folks to meet 

they'll be laughing and singing, 

the music swinging for dancing in the streets



Philadelphia, PA 

Baltimore and DC now

Dont forget the motor city 



Everyone China, Japan, South America and France

Australia, Brazil, Africa, everybody 



Swinging and swaying and the records playing

Dancing in the Streets
