MARTHA AND THE VANDELLAS
"Dancing In The Street"
(Gaye, Hunter, Stevenson)

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 street
There dancin' in Chicago (dancin' in the street)
Down in New Orleans (dancin' in the street)
In New York City (dancin' in the street)

All we need is music (sweet sweet) sweet (sweet sweet) music
They'll be music (music) everywhere (everywhere)
They'll be swingin' and swayin' and records playin'
Dancin' a in the street

Aw, 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

We'll be dancin'
We're dancin in the street (dancin' in the street)
This is an invitation across the nation
A chance for folks to meet
They'll be laughin', singin' and music swingin'
We're dancin' in the street

Philadelphia, P.A. (dancin' in the street)
Baltimore and D.C. 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)
They'll be music everwhere (everywhere)
They'll be swingin' and swayin' (swayin')
And records playin' (playin')
Dancin' in the street

Aw, 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

We're dancin', we're dancin' in the street
(Dancin in the street)
Way down in L.A. everyday
We're dancin' in the street (in the street)
Let's form a big strong line
Get in time we're dancin' in the street
(Dancin' in the street)

[Fades]

Across the ocean blue, me and you
