Calling out around the world 
Are you ready for a brand new beat? 
Summer's here and the is right 
For dancing in the street 

They'll be dancing in Chicago 
Down in New Orleans 
In New York City 
All we need is music, sweet music 
There'll be music everywhere 
There'll be records playing, 
Dancin' and swayin' 
Dancing in the street 

Well, doesn't matter what you wear 
Just as long as you are there 
So every guy grab a girl 
Every night around the world 

There'll be dancing in the street 
This is an invitation across the nation 
chance for folks to meet 
There'll be laughin' and singin' 
And music swingin' 
Dancing in the street 

Philadelphia, PA 
Baltimore and DC. now 
Can't forget the motor city 
All we need is music, sweet music 
There'll be music everywhere 
There'll be dancin' and swayin' 
Records playing, 
Dancing in the street 

Well now, doesn't matter what you wear 
Just as long as you are there 
So every guy grab a girl 
Every night around the world 

There'll be dancing in the street 
This is the [?] across the nation 
chance for folks to meet 
There'll be laughin' and singin' 
And music swingin' 
Dancing in the street
