Got no time for the cornerboys
Down on the street makin' all that noise
Don't want no whores on eight 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 her on all the rides
Down the shore everythings allright
You with your baby on a saturday night
Don't you know all my dreams come true
When I'm walkin' down the streets with you
-----
4*: sing sha la lala la sha lala la la la (and so on)
1*: I'm in love with a Jersey Girl
4*: Sing sha la la la la la sha la la la la la (a.s.o)
-----
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 she'll wear my ring
So don't bother me 'cause I've got no time
I'm on my way to see that girl of mine
nothing matters in this hole wide world
when you're in love with a jersey girl
--
chorus: (shalala as above)
--
and I call your name
I can't sleep at night
shalala
