Travelling down the Turnpike heading for the shore A thought just then occurred to me I never thought before I've been to a lot of places Seen pictures of the rest But of all the places I can think of I like Jersey best. Betting halls, shopping malls, good old Rutgers U, 47 shoes stores line Route 22 The Meadowlands, the root beer stands Main Street Hackensack; I may leave for a week or two But I'm always coming back. The Pinelands and the Vinelands Seaside Heights Margate You can have Miami I love the Garden State I've been to a lot of places Seen pictures of the rest But of all the places I can think of I like Jersey best! You remember the Paul Simon version, don’t you Oh~We have horses, Princeton courses, Gas stations we have scores Trenton, Hopewell, Lake Hopatcong, Mantoloking Shores; Some states have their rock stars, But Springsteen beats them all— And our beautiful arena has Brendan Byrne carved on the wall. Whoa-oh-oh~~ Lots of dineries, oil refineries, Our highways make you cough, But Spring Lake Heights and Belmar Are places to get off. Drinking spots and used car lots Make the place just grand, If you want to pay a visit, Newark Airport's where you land. (the Bob Dylan version) Oh, the Pinelands and the Vinelands Seaside Heights Ha-ho-hee You can sail in Miami Oh, I really sink to the Garden State I’m gonna mi~~~~~~ and I’m gonna~~~ But of all the places, I gotta say I like Jersey best. It’s another New Jersey sunrise…… Here’s the Beachboys… coming right out to you! Philly dogs like Chili dogs They eat in Cherry Hill Whooo~~ Woodbridge they make Haagen Dazs I can't get my fill Whoooo~~~ Foggy river ain't chopped liver Nor is Lavallette Whoooooo~~~~ There are no Jersey strangers, Just friends we haven't met! :D So is Secaucus!
