Callin' 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

There'll be dancing in Chicago
Down in New Orleans
Of the New York City

All we need is music, sweet music
There'll be music everywhere
There'll be swingin', swayin' and records playin'
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
Way down in L.A.
Every day they're dancing in the street

Let's form a big long line, get in time
We're dancing in the street
Across the ocean blue, me and you
We're dancing' in the street
