Lyrics Jersey Girl - Tom Waits

Jersey Girl

Got no time for the corner boys
Down in the street makin' all that noise
Don’t want no whores on 8th Avenue
'Cause tonight I’m gonna be with you
'Cause tonight I’m gonna take that ride
Across the river to the Jersey side
Take my baby to the carnival
And I’ll take you on all the rides
Down the shore everything’s all right
You with your baby on a Saturday night, yeah
Don’t you know all my dreams come true
When I’m walkin' down the street with you
Sing sha la la la la la
Sha la la la la la la la la
Sha la la, sha la la la
Sha la la la, I’m in love with a Jersey girl
Sha la la la la la la
Sha la la la la la la la la
Sha la la, sha la la la
Sha la la la la la
You know she thrills me with all her charms
When I’m wrapped up in my baby’s arms
My little angel gives me everything
I know someday that she’ll wear my ring
So don’t bother me 'cause I got no time
I’m on my way to see that girl of mine, yeah
Nothin' else matters in this whole wide world
When you’re in love with a Jersey girl
Sing sha la la la la la
Sha la la la la la la la la
Sha la la, sha la la la
Sha la la la, I’m in love with a Jersey girl
Sha la la la la la la
Sha la la la la la la la la
Sha la la, sha la la la
Sha la la la la la
And I call your name
I can’t sleep at night
Sha la la la la la la la
Sha la la la la la la la la
Sha la la la la la la la
Sha la la la la, I’m in love with a Jersey girl
Sha la la la la la la, yeah
Sha la la la la la la la la
Sha la la, sha la la la
Oh, I’m in love, I’m in love with a Jersey girl
Sha la la la la la la, yeah
Sha la la la la la la la la
