Martha Reeves & The Vandellas - Dancing In The Street lyrics

(Marvin Gaye/William "Mickey" Stevenson/Ivy Hunter) 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 (dancing in the street), Down in New Orleans (dancing in the street), In New York City (dancing in the street) All we need is music (sweet music) Sweet music (sweet music) There'll be music everywhere (everywhere) There'll be swinging and swaying And records playing And dancing 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 dancing They're dancing in the street (Dancing in the street) This is an invitation across the nation A chance for folks to meet There'll be laughing, singing, and music swinging And dancing in the street Philadelphia, PA (dancing in the street) Baltimore and DC now (dancing in the street) Can't forget the Motor City (dancing in the street) All we need is music (sweet music) Sweet music (sweet music) There'll be music everywhere (everywhere) There'll be swinging and swaying And records playing And dancing 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 dancing They're dancing in the street (Dancing in the street) Way down in LA, every day, They're dancing in the street (Dancing in the street) Let's form a big storm live, get in time With dancing in the street (Dancing in the street) Across the ocean blue, me and you, We're dancing in the street (Dancing in the street) (fade out)
