Lyrics to "Dancing In The Street" song by Martha And The Vandellas: Calling out around the world Are you ready for a brand new beat Summer's here and the time is right.

All because love, love, love makes me do these things Speak your name softly each night While holding your picture tight When you took my heart, you took my soul And it's far beyond control. Funny how precious memories linger on So long, after you've gone Oh, precious memories that only make me cry But I keep holding on, oh, why do I? All because love, love, love makes me do these things Speak your name softly each night While holding your picture tight. Love (Makes Me Do Foolish Things)" Track Info.

Martha Reeves & The Vandellas were one of the most successful groups in the Motown roster during the 1960s and fully active from 1960 to present, performing at various times doo-wop, pop, rock and roll and soul.

You've Been in Love Too Long" is a 1965 dance single recorded by Motown girl group Martha and the Vandellas. Their fourth straight Top 40 hit in two years, this song focused on a pro-feminist theme under a gritty R&B background with the narrator (lead singer Martha Reeves) explaining to the woman in question that after years of holding on to an unfaithful and abusive lover that she should let him go saying "you're a fool for your baby".
