Dancing In The Street Lyrics

[00:08.32] Callin' out around the world
[00:12.04] Are you ready for a brand new beat
[00:16.01] Summer's here and the time is right
[00:19.81] For dancing in the street
[00:22.41] They're dancing in Chicago (dancing in the street)
[00:27.32] Down in New Orleans (dancing in the street)
[00:30.43] In New York City (dancing in the street)
[00:33.49] All we need is music, sweet music
[00:38.48] There'll be music everywhere
[00:42.37] There'll be swingin' and swayin' and records playing
[00:46.85] Dancing in the street
[00:49.30] Oh it doesn't matter what you wear
[00:53.73] Just as long as you are there
[00:57.04] So come on ev'ry guy grab a girl
[01:01.96] Everywhere around the world
[01:05.09] There'll be dancing (dancing in the street)
[01:07.88] They're dancing in the street
[01:10.20] Dancing in the street
[01:12.59] It's just an invitation across the nation
[01:17.16] A chance for folks to meet
[01:20.14] There'll be laughing, singing and music swinging
[01:24.79] Dancing in the street
[01:27.49] Philadelphia, PA (dancing in the street)
[01:30.83] Baltimore and D.C. now (dancing in the street)
[01:34.40] Can't forget the Motor City (dancing in the street)
[01:37.96] All we need is music, sweet music
[01:43.09] There'll be music everywhere
[01:46.97] There'll be swingin', swayin' and records playing
[01:51.19] And dancing in the street
[01:54.04] Oh, it doesn't matter what you wear
[01:58.40] Just as long as you are there
[02:01.71] So come on, every guy grab a girl
[02:06.69] Everywhere around the world
[02:09.91] They're dancing
[02:12.52] They're dancing in the street (dancing in the street)
[02:16.50] Way down in L.A., every day, they're dancing in the street
[02:23.73] Let's get our big strong long, get on time (they're dancing in the street)
[02:31.45] Across the ocean blue, me and you (we're dancing in the street)
[02:36.43]
