Straight No Chaser - Taking It To (Dancing In) The Streets lyrics
[Straight No Chaser - Taking It To Dancing In The Streets lyrics]
You don't know me but I'm your brother
I was raised here in this living hell
You don't know my kind in your world
Fairly soon, the time will tell
You, telling me the things
You're gonna do for me
I ain't blind and I don't like
What I think I see
(Taking it to the streets)
Taking it to the streets
(Taking it to the streets)
Taking it to the streets
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 street
They're dancing in Chicago
(dancing in the street)
Down in New Orleans (dancing in the street)
In New York City (dancing in the street)
All we need is music, sweet music
There'll be music everywhere
There'll be swingin' and swayin'
And records playing dancing in the street
Oh it doesn't matter what you wear
Just as long as you are there
So come on ev'ry guy grab a girl
Everywhere around the world
Take this message to my brother
You will find him everywhere
Wherever people live together
Tied in poverty's despair
Oh, you, telling me the things
You're gonna do for me
I ain't blind and I don't like
What I think I see
(Taking it to the streets)
Taking it to the streets
(Taking it to the streets)
(Taking it to the streets)
All we need is music, sweet music
There'll be music everywhere
It's just an invitation across the nation
A chance for folks to meet
There'll be laughing
Singing and music swinging
Dancing in the street
Philadelphia, PA (dancing in the street)
Baltimore and DC now (dancing in the street)
Can't forget the Motor City
(dancing in the street)
The streets of Brazil back in the USSR
(Dancing in the street)
No matter where you are
(Dancing in the street)
Oh it doesn't matter what you wear
Just as long as you are there
So come on ev'ry guy grab a girl
Everywhere around the world
(Taking it to the streets)
Taking it to the streets
(Taking it to the streets)
(Taking it to the streets)
(Taking it to the streets)
Taking it to the streets
(Taking it to the streets)
(Taking it to the streets)
I was raised here in this living hell
You don't know my kind in your world
Fairly soon, the time will tell
You, telling me the things
You're gonna do for me
I ain't blind and I don't like
What I think I see
(Taking it to the streets)
Taking it to the streets
(Taking it to the streets)
Taking it to the streets
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 street
They're dancing in Chicago
(dancing in the street)
Down in New Orleans (dancing in the street)
In New York City (dancing in the street)
All we need is music, sweet music
There'll be music everywhere
There'll be swingin' and swayin'
And records playing dancing in the street
Oh it doesn't matter what you wear
Just as long as you are there
So come on ev'ry guy grab a girl
Everywhere around the world
Take this message to my brother
You will find him everywhere
Wherever people live together
Tied in poverty's despair
Oh, you, telling me the things
You're gonna do for me
I ain't blind and I don't like
What I think I see
(Taking it to the streets)
Taking it to the streets
(Taking it to the streets)
(Taking it to the streets)
All we need is music, sweet music
There'll be music everywhere
It's just an invitation across the nation

(Taking it to the streets)
Taking it to the streets
(Taking it to the streets)
(Taking it to the streets)
(Taking it to the streets)
Taking it to the streets
(Taking it to the streets)
(Taking it to the streets)
