    "Jersey Girl" by Tom Waits from the album 'Heartattack And Vine'
    Lyrics
    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.
    cause 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, sing sha la la Ia Ia Ia
    sha la la Ia.
    down the shore every-
    thing’s alright, you with
    your baby on a saturday
    night, don’t you know that
    all my dreams come true,
    when i’m walkin’ down the
    street with you, sing sha Ia
    la Ia la Ia sha la la la.
    you know she thrills me
    with all her charms, when
    i’m wrapped up in my
    baby’s arms, my little an-
    gel gives me everything, i
    know 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’ else matters in this
    whole wide world, when
    you’re in love with a jersey
    girl, sing sha la la la Ia Ia la.
    and i call your name, i
    can’t sleep at night, sha la
    Ia la Ia Ia Ia.

    My "Jersey Girl" died, unexpectedly, on 30 Dec 2019, this was the song I played for her when we met. I played it at her service. I miss her so much.

    I've been a Waits fan all my (and his) life and never feel uncomfortable to announce it to anyone interested. Some of his fans seem to recoil from admitting to it but let me assure you you're doing us all a service by introducing others to his wonderful music and compositions. So far I've preached his work to my children, grandchildren and now my first great grandchild. If I ever get a great great grandchild then she or he will also hear this old fool introducing them to the great great Tom Waits.

    I got no time for the corner boys
    Down in the street making all that noise
    Or the girls out on the avenue
    'Cause tonight I want to 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
    'Cause down the shore everything's all right
    You and your baby on a Saturday night
    You know all my dreams come true
    When I'm walking down the street with you
    Sha la la la la la la
    Sha la la la la la la la la
    Sha la la la la la la la
    Sha la la la I'm in love with a Jersey girl
    You know she thrills me with all her charms
    When I'm wrapped up in my baby's arms
    My little girl gives me everything
    I know that some day she'll wear my ring
    So don't bother me man I ain't got no time
    I'm on my way to see that girl of mine
    'Cause nothing 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 la la
    Sha la la la la la la la
    Sha la la la I'm in love with a Jersey girl
    I see you on the street and you look so tired
    I know that job you got leaves you so uninspired
    When I come by to take you out to eat
    you're lyin' all dressed up on the bed baby fast asleep
    Go in the bathroom and put your makeup on
    We're gonna take that little brat of yours and drop her off at your mom?s
    I know a place where the dancing?s free
    Now baby won't you come with me
    'Cause down the shore everything's all right
    You and your baby on a Saturday night
    Nothing matters in this whole wide world
    When you're in love with a Jersey girl

    I was a foetus in my mother's womb when I first heard this album. The curse of lycanthropy had not yet befallen me in the late Autumn months of 1986 and were I to know the future that lay ahead I may not have continued to live. The dark alien overlords that control the planet had yet to make themselves known to me and I was about to finish my apprenticeship in Lung Puncturing. The future seemed bright and the world wide open: how wrong I was!
    Anyway, great song.
