Dancing In The Streets

(album: Street Party - 1974)

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 streets
They're dancing in Chicago
Down in New Orleans
Up in New York City

All we need is music, sweet music
There'll be music everywhere
There'll be swinging, swaying and records playing
And dancing in the streets

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 dancing, they're dancing in the street

This is an invitation across the nation
A chance for the folks to meet
There'll be laughing and singing and music swinging
And dancing in the streets

Philadelphia, P.A.
Baltimore and DC now
Yeah don't forget the Motor City

All we need is music, sweet music
There'll be music everywhere
There'll be swinging, swaying and records playing
And dancing in the street, yeah

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
