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 streets

They’re dancin’ in Chicago
(dancin’ in the street)
Way down in New Orleans now (dancin’ in the street)
Up in New York City
(dancin’ in the street)
All we need is music (sweet, sweet)
Sweet music (sweet, sweet music)
There’ll be music everywhere
(sweet music everywhere)
There’ll be swingin’, swayin’ and records playin’
And dancin’ in the streets (in the street)

Oh it doesn’t matter what you wear
Just as long as you are there
(you are there)
So come on, every guy, grab a girl
Everywhere around the world
There’ll be dancin’
(dancin’ in the street)
Now, dancin’ in the streets (dancin’ in the street)

This is an invitation across the nation
A place where folks can meet
(in the street)
There’ll be laughin’, singin’,
music swingin’
And dancin’ in the street
(in the street)
Philadelphia PA (dancin’ in the street)
Baltimore and DC now
(dancin’ in the street)
Can’t forget the motor city
(dancin’ in the street)
All we need is music (sweet, sweet)
Sweet music (sweet, sweet music)
There’ll be music everywhere
(sweet music everywhere)
There’ll be swingin’, swayin’ and records playin’
And dancin’ in the streets (in the street)

Oh it doesn’t  matter what you wear
Just as long as you are there
(you are there)
So come on, every guy, grab a girl
Everywhere around the world

There’ll be dancin’
(dancin’ in the street) now
A dancin’ in the streets
(dancin’ in the street)
Way down in LA, everyday
There dancin’ in the streets
(dancin’ in the street)
Let’s form a big strong line
Get in time
We’re dancin’ in the street
(dancin’ in the street)
Right here in Branson, M – O,
we’re ready to go
We’re dancin’ in the street
