Wow! Ah yeah! 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 Records playing, dancing in the streets It doesn't matter what hat you wear Just as long as you are there Grab a guy, grab a girl Everywhere around the world There'll be dancing Dancing in the streets It's just an invitation Across the nation A chance for folks to meet There'll be laughing and singing Music swinging, dancing in the streets All we need is music, sweet music There'll be music everywhere There'll be swinging, swaying Records playing, dancing in the streets It doesn't matter what hat you wear Just as long as you are there Grab a guy, grab a girl Everywhere around the world Dancing, dancing in the streets
