| [00:04.25] |
Travelling down the Turnpike |
| [00:07.00] |
heading for the shore |
| [00:09.00] |
A thought just then occurred to me |
| [00:11.03] |
I never thought before |
| [00:14.00] |
I've been to a lot of places |
| [00:16.00] |
Seen pictures of the rest |
| [00:18.00] |
But of all the places I can think of |
| [00:20.30] |
I like Jersey best. |
| [00:24.00] |
Betting halls, shopping malls, |
| [00:27.00] |
good old Rutgers U, |
| [00:29.45] |
47 shoes stores line Route 22 |
| [00:34.50] |
The Meadowlands, the root beer stands |
| [00:37.00] |
Main Street Hackensack; |
| [00:39.00] |
I may leave for a week or two |
| [00:41.00] |
But I'm always coming back. |
| [00:46.00] |
The Pinelands and the Vinelands |
| [00:47.40] |
Seaside Heights Margate |
| [00:50.00] |
You can have Miami |
| [00:52.00] |
I love the Garden State |
| [00:55.02] |
I've been to a lot of places |
| [00:57.10] |
Seen pictures of the rest |
| [00:59.40] |
But of all the places I can think of |
| [01:03.00] |
I like Jersey best! |
| [01:05.03] |
You remember the Paul Simon version, don’t you |
| [01:17.00] |
Oh~We have horses, Princeton courses, |
| [01:20.00] |
Gas stations we have scores |
| [01:22.30] |
Trenton, Hopewell, Lake Hopatcong, |
| [01:24.30] |
Mantoloking Shores; |
| [01:26.50] |
Some states have their rock stars, |
| [01:28.50] |
But Springsteen beats them all— |
| [01:31.00] |
And our beautiful arena has |
| [01:33.00] |
Brendan Byrne carved on the wall. |
| [01:43.00] |
Whoa-oh-oh~~ |
| [01:44.30] |
Lots of dineries, oil refineries, |
| [01:46.00] |
Our highways make you cough, |
| [01:49.00] |
But Spring Lake Heights and Belmar |
| [01:50.00] |
Are places to get off. |
| [01:53.00] |
Drinking spots and used car lots |
| [01:56.00] |
Make the place just grand, |
| [01:58.10] |
If you want to pay a visit, |
| [01:59.30] |
Newark Airport's where you land. |
| [02:03.00] |
(the Bob Dylan version) |
| [02:04.55] |
Oh, the Pinelands and the Vinelands |
| [02:08.00] |
Seaside Heights Ha-ho-hee |
| [02:11.00] |
You can sail in Miami |
| [02:15.10] |
Oh, I really sink to the Garden State |
| [02:18.50] |
I’m gonna mi~~~~~~ |
| [02:22.10] |
and I’m gonna~~~ |
| [02:26.00] |
But of all the places, I gotta say |
| [02:29.00] |
I like Jersey best. |
| [02:43.00] |
It’s another New Jersey sunrise…… |
| [02:49.00] |
Here’s the Beachboys… coming right out to you! |
| [02:53.00] |
Philly dogs like Chili dogs |
| [02:55.40] |
They eat in Cherry Hill |
| [02:57.55] |
Whooo~~ |
| [02:59.50] |
Woodbridge they make Haagen Dazs |
| [03:02.00] |
I can't get my fill |
| [03:03.40] |
Whoooo~~~ |
| [03:05.00] |
Foggy river ain't chopped liver |
| [03:08.00] |
Nor is Lavallette |
| [03:09.50] |
Whoooooo~~~~ |
| [03:10.40] |
There are no Jersey strangers, |
| [03:14.00] |
Just friends we haven't met! :D |
| [03:22.00] |
So is Secaucus! |
| [03:24.40] |
(the Mel Torme version) |
| [03:26.00] |
Let’s go to Jersey now, |
| [03:28.20] |
Everybody’s hanging out |
| [03:29.30] |
Coming out to Jersey with me. |
| [03:32.40] |
~~~~New Jersey |
| [03:33.00] |
The Jersey Nets so went thataway, Piscataway no more, |
| [03:38.50] |
Whoooooo~~~~ |
| [03:40.00] |
had another winning season |
| [03:42.30] |
And next year they'll win more; |
| [03:44.40] |
Our Giants could go all the way |
| [03:49.00] |
If they could win just one, (Nah...) |
| [03:52.00] |
But the parties in the lots |
| [03:54.00] |
Before the games are really fun. |
| [03:56.00] |
(the Billie Holiday version) |
| [03:59.00] |
Ahhh~ Pinelands and the Vinelan~~~ |
| [04:07.00] |
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ |
| [04:18.00] |
Seen~~~~~~ Alo~~~pla~~~~ |
| [04:35.00] |
Sorry, fellows…… |
| [04:36.00] |

| [04:39.00] |
You know, eh, before we continue with the Lou Reed version |
| [04:44.30] |
I wanna do a couple of new versions for you |
| [04:47.00] |
You know, we now have a version of……it was recently covered by the Police with Sting |
| [04:50.30] |
1, 2,3, 4 |
| [04:56.00] |
Travelling down the Turnpike |
| [04:58.00] |
heading for the shore |
| [05:01.00] |
A thought just then occurred to me |
| [05:04.00] |
I never thought before |
| [05:06.50] |
I’m going to the Jersey shore |
| [05:11.00] |
Ye-oh Yeah-oh |
| [05:15.00] |
Thank you |
| [05:20.00] |
If I remember… Michael Mc Donald in the Doobie Brothers… |
| [05:23.50] |
The Pinelands and the Vinelands |
| [05:29.00] |
Seaside Heights Margate |
| [05:30.40] |
You can have Miami |
| [05:35.50] |
I love the Garden State |
| [05:37.50] |
…And of course, the James Tylor version, which is something…… |
| [05:48.00] |
In my mind I’m going to New Jersey… |
| [05:56.40] |
~~~~~~ |
| [06:03.00] |
You know, the Lou Reed version, is not to be confused with the Lou Rawls version, |
| [06:09.00] |
Which goes something like this… |
| [06:14.30] |
You’ll never find |
| [06:18.00] |
Another state like mine |
| [06:22.00] |
A state that cares for you |
| [06:26.10] |
Ohhhhhh——You’re gonna miss New Jersey— |
| [06:29.20] |
You’re gonna miss you gonna miss—— |
| [06:32.00] |
Mrs..Mrs. Jones… |
| [06:34.00] |
——Oh sorry |
| [06:38.20] |
~~~~~ |
| [06:43.00] |
Made it to the Lou Reed version: |
| [06:45.00] |
~~~ |
| [06:48.00] |
Our famous Parkway is the darkway |
| [06:51.20] |
Home from Manasquan |
| [06:54.00] |
You'd think for all those quarters |
| [06:56.00] |
They'd turn the road lights on |
| [06:58.00] |
~~~ |
| [07:03.00] |
Have no pity, Jersey City |
| [07:05.00] |
Once again will shine, |
| [07:07.50] |
With Holmdel, Cape May, Philipsburg |
| [07:10.00] |
I like our state just fine. |
| [07:11.50] |

I love the Garden State |
| [07:36.00] |
I've been to a lot of places |
| [07:40.00] |
I’ve seen snapshots of the rest |
| [07:43.20] |
But of all the places |
| [07:46.20] |
I can take chicks to, |
| [07:48.10] |
I like Jersey Best!! |
