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

Off the wind on this heading lie the Marquesas
We got eighty feet of the waterline, nicely making way
In a noisy bar in Avalon I tried to call you
But on a midnight watch I realized
Why twice you ran away

 

(Think about), think about how many times I have fallen
Spirits are using me, larger voices callin'
What Heaven brought you and me cannot be forgotten
(I've been around the world) I have been around the world
(Lookin') lookin' for that woman, girl
(Who knows? She knows) who knows love can endure?

 

And you know it will
And you know it will

Hello, hello, baby
You called, I can't hear a thing
I have got no service in the club, you see, see
Wha-wha-what did you say, oh
You're breaking up on me
Sorry, I cannot hear you, I'm kinda busy

K-kinda busy, k-kinda busy
Sorry, I cannot hear you, I'm kinda busy

Am I wrong to fall so deeply in love with you
Knowin' I got a wife and two little children depending on me too?
And am I wrong to hunger for the gentleness of your touch
Knowing I got someone else's home that needs me just as much?

 

If lovin' you is wrong I don't wanna be right
If lovin' you is wrong I don't wanna be right

They took the whole Cherokee nation
Put us on this reservation
Took away our ways of life
The tomahawk and the bow and knife
Took away our native tongue
And taught their English to our young
And all the beads we made by hand
Are nowadays made in Japan


Cherokee people
Cherokee tribe
So proud to live
So proud to die

People are people, so why should it be?
You and I should get along so awfully...
People are people, so why should it be?
You and I should get along so awfully...

 

So, we're different colors and we're different creeds...
And different people have different needs...
It's obvious you hate me, though, I've done nothing wrong...
I've never even met you, so, what could I have done?

Hello, hello
Who put love in my head?
I know, I know, it's made of lead
Hello, hello
Science came, my kingdom reigned
Below, below, my Charlemagne

And the river always flows, so if you go
I will know by the rain, my Charlemagne

 

I heard that evil comes disguised
Like the city of angels
I'm walking towards the light

 

Baptized in the river
I've seen a vision of my life and I wanna be delivered
In the city was a sinner
I've done a lot of things wrong, but I swear I'm a believer
Like the prodigal son, I was out on my own
Now I'm trying to find my way back home
Baptized in the river
I'm delivered
I'm delivered

I come from down in the valley
Where Mister, when you're young
They bring you up to do like your daddy done
Me and Mary we met in high school
When she was just seventeen
We'd ride out of this valley
Down to where the fields were green

 

We'd go down to the river
And into the river we'd dive
Oh, down to the river, we'd ride

My mother came to Hazard when I was just seven
Even then the folks in town said with prejudiced eyes, "That boy's not right"
Three years ago when I came to know Mary
First time that someone looked beyond the rumors and the lies
And saw the man inside...

 

We used to walk down by the river
She loved to watch the sun go down
We used to walk along the river
And dream our way out of this town...

 

No one understood what I felt for Mary
No one cared until the night she went out walking all alone
And never came home
Man with a badge came knocking next morning
Here was I surrounded by a thousand fingers suddenly
Pointed right at me...

 

I swear I left her by the river
I swear I left her safe and sound
I need to make it to the river
And leave this old Nebraska town...

 

I think about my life gone by,

And how it's done me wrong

There's no escape for me this time

All of my rescues are gone, long gone....
