Dancin in the Street

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

All we need is music, sweet music, 
There'll be music everywhere 
There'll be swingin' swayin', and records playin, 
Dancin' in the street 

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 dancin', they're dancin' in the street. 
This is an invitation, across the nation, 
A chance for folks to meet. 
There'll be laughin' singin', and music swingin' 
Dancin' in the street 

Philadelphia P.A., Baltimore and D.C now, 
Can't forget the motor city, 
All we need is music, sweet music 
There'll be music everywhere 
There'll be swingin' swayin', and records playin, 
Dancin' in the street 

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 

They're dancin', dancin' in the street 
Way down in L.A., every day they're dancin' in the street 
Lets form a big strong line, and get in time, 
We're dancin' in the street. 
Across the ocean blue, me and you 
We're dancin n the street

The Jackson 5: I'll be there

You and I must make a pact, we must bring salvation back

Where there is love, I'll be there

 

I'll reach out my hand to you, I'll have faith in all you do

Just call my name and I'll be there

 

[Chorus:]

And oh - I'll be there to comfort you,

Build my world of dreams around you, I'm so glad that I found you

I'll be there with a love that's strong

I'll be your strength, I'll keep holding on - yes I will, yes I will

 

Let me fill your heart with joy and laughter

Togetherness, well that's all I'm after

Whenever you need me, I'll be there

I'll be there to protect you, with an unselfish love I respect you

Just call my name and I'll be there

 

[Chorus]

 

If you should ever find someone new, I know he'd better be good to you

'Cos if he doesn't, I'll be there

 

Don't you know, baby, yeah yeah

I'll be there, I'll be there, just call my name, I'll be there

 

(Just look over your shoulders, honey - ooh)

 

I'll be there, I'll be there, whenever you need me, I'll be there

 

Don't you know, baby, yeah yeah

You went to school to learn girl

Things you never, never knew before

Like "I" before "E" except after "C"

And why 2 plus 2 makes 4

All about school girl

Sit yourself down, take a seat

All you gotta do is repeat after me

But without the roots of school everyday girl

Your education ain't complete
