Going to New Jersey
Talking ‘bout a place in the USA
Well, it’s a place not too far away
And it’s a place where we all like to play
[Let me tell you about it, right now]
I’m going to New Jersey
I’m sorry, but I can’t take you all
I’m going to New Jersey
I’m sorry, but I can’t take you all
But there’s enough in New Jersey
for a funky little girl like you
I’m going to New Jersey
I’m sorry, but I can’t take you all
[I wished I had the room darling, but I don’t, so I won’t]
I’m going to New Jersey
I’m sorry, but I can’t take you all
There’s just enough in New Jersey
for a funky little girl like you
Well, they got a lot of diners
and motels where you can stay
and on a stop on any every roadhouse on the way
I’m going to New Jersey
I’m sorry, but I can’t take you all
There’s just enough in New Jersey
for a funky little girl like you
[Come on Bill, you know all about it]
[Come on Bill, so I heared you are in New Jersey]
They’ve got chicken wings and buffalo
and I love Long Island Sound
Man, Manhattan is the most
but now I’m just about
going to New Jersey
I’m sorry, but I can’t take you all
But there’s enough in New Jersey
for a funky little girl like you
[Come on, being with us, juicy flue]
[Sounds like he’d been there]
Well, they got a lot of diners
and motels where you can stay
But such confusing highways,
you get lost along the way
I’m going to New Jersey
I’m sorry, but I can’t take you all
There’s just enough in New Jersey
for a funky little girl like you
[Come on boys, help me out, I need it]
I’m going to New Jersey, I’m going to New Jersey
[I’m leaving tonight]
I’m going to New Jersey, I’m going to New Jersey
I’ve been travelin’ down the Jersey Turnpike!
I’ve been drivin’ on the Garden State!
I’ve been cruising down Route 22!
From Paramus to Secaucus!
From Hoboken to Ho-Ho-Kus!
From Asbury Park to Atlantic City!
There ain’t nothing in New Jersey
for a funky little girl like you
