Let’s dance!

Put on your red shoes and dance the blues. Let’s dance!

To the song they’re playing on the radio. Let’s sway!

While colour lights up your face.

Let’s sway!

Sway through the crowd to an empty space.

If you say “run,” I’ll run with you.

And if you say “hide,” we’ll hide,

Because my love for you would break my heart in two. If you should fall into my arms,

Tremble like a flower!

I’ve been working so hard,

I’m punching my card.

Eight hours, for what?

Oh, tell me what I’ve got.

I’ve got this feeling,

That time’s just-a holding me down.

I’ll hit the ceiling, or else I’ll tear up this town.

Now I gotta cut loose, footloose, kick off your Sunday shoes. Please, Louise, pull me off of my knees.

Jack, get back, come on before we crack.

Lose your blues, everybody cut footloose!

And if you should see her, Please let her know that I’m well, As you can tell.

And if she should tell you

That she wants me back, tell her “no,” I’ve gotta go.

I just wanna dance the night away, With señoritas who can sway. Right now, tomorrow’s looking bright, Just like the sunny morning light.

Oh, I wanna dance with somebody, I wanna feel the heat with somebody. Yeah, I wanna dance with somebody, With somebody who loves me. Oh, I wanna dance with somebody, I wanna feel the heat with somebody. Yeah, I wanna dance with somebody, With somebody who loves me.

There may be trouble ahead,

But while there’s moonlight and music and love and romance, Let’s face the music and dance!

Before the fiddlers have fled, Before they ask us to pay the bill And while we still have the chance, Let’s face the music and dance!

Soon, we’ll be without the moon,

Humming a different tune and then,

There may be teardrops to shed.

So while there’s moonlight and music and love and romance, Let’s face the music and dance!

Let’s face the music and...

Groove tonight, Share the spice of life. Baby, slice it right, We’re gonna groove tonight.

Let this groove get you to move, It’s alright, alright, alright.

Let this groove set in your shoes, So stand up, stand up, alright.

You will find, peace of mind on the floor, take a little time. Come and see, groove me, give a little sign.

I’ll be there, after a while, if you want my love,

We can boogie on down.

The boogie down, down, on down. The boogie down, down, on down. The boogie down, down, on down. The boogie down, down, on down.

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. They’re dancing in Chicago, down in New Orleans, in New York City.

All we need is music, sweet music, there’ll be music everywhere. There’ll be swinging and swaying and records playing and dancing in the street.

Oh!

It doesn’t matter what you wear, just as long as you are there. So come on, every guy, every girl.

Everywhere around the world,

They’ll be dancing, they’re dancing in the street. Dancing in the street.

Dancing in the street!
