Tom Waits Jersey Girl song lyrics

I got no time for the corner boys

Down in the street making all that noise

Or the girls out on the avenue

'Cause tonight I wanna be with you

Tonight I'm gonna take that ride

Across the river to the Jersey side

Take my baby to the carnival

And I'll take her on all the rides

'Cause down the shore everything's all right

You and your baby on a Saturday night

You know all my dreams come true

When I'm walking down the street with you

Sing sha la la la, sha la la la, sha la la la

Sha la la la I'm in love with a Jersey girl

Sha la la la, sha la la la, sha la la la

You know she thrills me with all her charms

When I'm wrapped up in my baby's arms

My little girl gives me everything

I know that some day she'll wear my ring

So don't bother me man, I ain't got no time

I'm on my way to see that girl of mine

'Cause nothing matters in this whole wide world

When you're in love with a Jersey girl

Sing sha la la la, sha la la la, sha la la la

Sha la la la I'm in love with a Jjersey girl

Sha la la la, sha la la la, sha la la la

When I call your name, I can sleep all night

Sha la la la, sha la la la, sha la la la

Sha la la la I'm in love with a Jersey girl

Sha la la la, sha la la la, sha la la la

Sha la la la I'm in love, I'm in love with a Jersey girl
