Tom Waits - Jersey Girl lyrics

rate me

I Got no time for the corner boys,

Down in the street makin' all that noise,

Don't want no whores on eighth avenue,

Cause tonight I'm gonna 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 you on all the rides,

.

Down the shore everything's alright,

You with your baby on a saturday night,

Nothin matters in this whole wide world,

When you're in love with a jersey girl,

sha la la la la la la

sha la la la la la la.

sha la 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 hope 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,

Nothin matters in this whole wide world,

When you're in love with a jersey girl,

sha la la la la la la

sha la la la la la la.

sha la la la la la la.

love with a jersey girl,

sha la la la la la la.

sha la la la la la la

sha la la la la la la.

And I call your name, I can't sleep at night,

Sing sha la la la la la la.

sha la la la la la la.

sha la la la la la la.

love with a jersey girl,

sha la la la la la la.

sha la la la la la la

sha la la la la la la.

sha la la la la la la
