Party now around the world
Are you ready for a brand new beat
The summer’s here and the time is right
For dancing in the street

Dancing in Chicago
Down in New Orleans
In New York City

All we need is music
Sweet music
They’ll be music everywhere

They’ll be swinging and swaying
Records playing
Dancing in the street

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

They’ll be dancing
Dancing in the street

This is an invitation
Across the nation
A chance for folks to meet

They’ll be laughing and singing
Music swinging
Dancing in the street

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

They’ll be dancing
Dancing in the street
