Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I never met a girl who makes me feel the way that you do
You're alright
Whenever I'm asked who makes my dreams real
I say that you do
You're outta sight
[Verse 2]
So fe-fi-fo-fum
Look out, baby, 'cause here I come
And I'm bringing you a love that's true
So get ready, get ready
I'm gonna try to make you love me too
So get ready, get ready
'Cause here I come
[Verse 3]
(Get ready, 'cause here I come)
I'm on my way
(Get ready, 'cause here I come)
C'mon, y'all
(Get ready, get ready)
(Get ready, ready, ready, ready, ready)
('Cause here we come)
[Verse 4]
Calling out around the world
Are you ready for a brand new beat?
Summer's here and the time is right
For dancing in the street (Dancing in the street)
[Verse 5]
They're dancing in Chicago (Dancing in the street)
Down in New Orleans (Dancing in the street)
In New York City (Dancing in th street)
All we need is music, sweet music
They'll be music everywhere
They'll be swinging and swaying and records playing
Dancing in the street
[Verse 6]
Oh, it doesn't matter what you wear
Just as long as you are there (You are there)
Come on, every guy, grab a girl
Everywhere around the world
[Verse 7]
It doesn't matter what you wear
As long as you are there
Come on, every guy, grab a girl
Everywhere around the world
Everyone around the world
[Verse 8]
Dancing (Dancing in the street)
We're dancing in the street (Dancing in the street)
This is an invitation across the nation (Dancing in the street)
They'll be laughing as music's playing, yeah
(Dancing in the street)
[Verse 9]
Ooh, we're dancing in the street, yeah
(Dancing In the street)
(Dancing in the street)
(Dancing in the street)
(Dancing in the street)
(Dancing in the street)
We're dancing in the street
