Dancing in the Street lyrics
by Marvin Gaye
[Verse 1: Natasha, Jenny, Liz]
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
We're dancing in Chicago
Down in New Orleans
In New York City
[Bridge: Natasha, Liz, Jenny]
All we need is music, sweet music
There'll be music everywhere
There'll be swingin', swayin' and records playin'
And dancing in the streets
[Chorus: All]
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
Dancing in the streets
[Bridge: Natasha, Liz, Jenny]
This is an invitation
Across the nation
A chance for the folks to meet
There'll be laughin' and singin' and music swingin'
And dancing in the streets
Philadelphia, PA (Dancing in the street)
Baltimore and D.C., now (Dancing in the street)
Can't forget the Motor City (Dancing in the street)
[Bridge: Natasha, Liz, Jenny]
All we need is music, sweet music
There'll be music everywhere
There'll be swingin', swayin' and records playin'
And dancin' in the streets
[Chorus: All]
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
Dancing in the streets
(Dancing in the streets)
(Dancing in the)
[Bridge: Natasha, Liz, Jenny]
All we need is music, sweet music
There'll be music everywhere
There'll be swingin', swayin' and records playin'
And dancin' in the streets
[Chorus: All]
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
Dancing in the streets
(Dancing in the streets)
[Outro: Liz, Natasha, Jenny]
Way down in L.A., every day (Dancing in the street)
They're dancing in the street (Dancing in the street)
They form a big strong line, get in time (Dancing in the street)
We're dancing in the street (Dancing in the street)
Across the ocean blue, me and you (Dancing in the street)
We're dancing in the street, yeah (Dancing in the street)
