Tom Waits
Jersey Girl
[Verse 1]
I got no time for the corner boys
Down in the street makin' all that noise
No other whores on Eighth Avenue
'Cause tonight I wanna be with you

[Verse 2]
'Cause tonight I'm gonna take that ride
Across the river to the Jersey side, yeah
Take my baby to the carnival
And I'll take you on all the rides

[Verse 3]
Down on the shore everything's alright
You and 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

[Chorus]
Sing sha la la la la, sha la la la la la la la
Sha la la, sha la la la, sha la la, I'm in love with a Jersey girl
Sha la la la la la, sha la la la la la la
Sha la la, sha la la la, sha la la la la la

[Verse 4]
You know she thrills me with all her charms
Whеn I'm wrapped up in my baby's arms, yeah
My little angеl gives me everything
I know someday that she'll wear my ring
[Verse 5]
Don't bother me, 'cause I got no time
I'm on my way to see that girl of mine, yeah
Nothin' matters in this whole wide world
When you're in love with a Jersey girl

[Chorus]
Sing sha la la la la, sha la la la la la la la
Sha la la, sha la la la, sha la la, I'm in love with a Jersey girl
Sha la la la la la, sha la la la la la la la
Sha la la, sha la la la, sha la la la la la

[Bridge]
And I call your name
I couldn't sleep at night

[Chorus]
Sha la la la la la la, sha la la la la la la la
Sha la la, sha la la la, sha la la, I'm in love with a Jersey girl
Sha la la la la la, sha la la la la la la la
Sha la la, la la la, sha la la, I'm in love with a Jersey girl
Sha la la la la (Sha la la la, sha la la la la)
Sha la la la la la la la, yeah (Sha la la la, sha la la la)
Oh, sha la la la (Sha la la la, sha la la la)
Don't you know I'm in love with a Jersey girl (Sha la la la, sha la la la)
Sha la la la la (Sha la la la, sha la la la)
Sha la la la la la la (Sha la la la, sha la la la)
Sha la la, la la la, ooh (Sha la la la, sha la la la)
I'm in love, I'm in love, I'm in love with a Jersey girl (Sha la la la, sha la la la)
[Outro]
I'm in love (Sha la la la, sha la la la)
Little baby (Sha la la la, sha la la la)
Sha la la, sha la la (Sha la la la, sha la la la)
I'm in love with a Jersey girl, ooh (Sha la la la, sha la la la)
(Sha la la la, sha la la la)
