true then, still true, Michael Mcdonald's Takin it to the streets
TAKIN’ IT TO THE STREETS LYRICS
Michael mcdonald

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

Takin’ it to the streets
Takin’ it to the streets
Takin’ it to the streets
Takin’ it to the streets

Take this message to my brother
You will find him everywhere
Wherever people live together
Tied in poverty’s despair
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

Takin’ it to the streets
Takin’ it to the streets
Takin’ it to the streets
Takin’ it to the streets

1. Love me some Michael Mc! Let's Take It To The Street~



Someone at DU mentioned in a thread that we should have a theme song for these times when we MARCH!

I think "Taking It" should certainly be a MARCHING song!

and I also love Marvin Gaye's " What's going on" it still is relevant in 2005.

2. Dancing in the steet...
Hey, comin’ out around the world be ready for a brand new beat
Oh, summer’s here and the time is right, oh, for dancing in the street
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 (sweet, sweet music)
They’ll be music everywhere (everywhere)
They’ll be laughing, singing, music swinging and dancing in the street

It doesn’t matter what you wear just as long as you are there
They’re dancing (dancing in the street) oh oh

This is an invitation across the nation the chance for folks to meet
There’ll be swinging, swaying, music playing and dancing in the street

Philadelphia, pa now (dancing in the street)
Baltimore and d.c. (dancing in the street)
Can’t forget them other cities (dancing in the street)
