Martha and the Vandellas

Callin' out around the world, are you ready for a brand new beat?
Summer's here and the time is right for dancin' in the street.
Dancin' in Chicago (dancin' in the street)
Down in New Orleans (dancin' in the street)
In New York City (dancin' in the street)

All we need is music, sweet music,
There'll be music everywhere
There'll be swingin' swayin', and records playin,
Dancin' 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

There'll be dancin', (dancin' in the street)
they're dancin' in the street. (dancin' in the street)
This is an invitation, across the nation,
A chance for folks to meet.
There'll be laughin' singin', and music swingin'
Dancin' in the street

Philadelphia P.A., (dancin' in the street)
Baltimore and D.C now, (dancin' in the street)
Can't forget the motor city, (dancin' in the street)
All we need is music, sweet music
There'll be music everywhere
There'll be swingin' swayin', and records playin,
Dancin' 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 dancin', they're dancin' in the street
Way down in L.A., every day they're dancin' in the street (dancin' in the street)
Lets form a big strong line, and get in time,
We're dancin' in the street. (dancin' in the street)
Across the ocean blue, me and you
We're dancin n the street
