New Jersey

lyrics

Someday I'll buy you that house in New Jersey,
And we'll head out to shows down at the Stone Pony,
We'll find drinking buddies down at the Asbury Lanes,
And it won't matter if this American Dream,
Goes up in flames.

There'll be burnt out Cadillacs along the highway,
We'll drive all hours of the night and throughout the days,
We could take a trip into New York City,
To remind us of London Town,
If we should ever start to miss it

The tires will meet the road on Route 66
We'll take a tent and build a campfire
Out in the wilderness
The city air has been known to clog my airways,
These rolling fields make me feel
Like I'm home again.

Someday I'll buy you that house in New Jersey,
with the shutters by the sea
And we'll head out to shows down at the Stone Pony,
if they'll let us in
We'll find drinking buddies down at the Asbury Lanes,
and drown our sorrows
And it won't matter if this American Dream,
Goes up in flames,

I can still dream tomorrow
The tires will meet the road on Route 66
We'll take a tent and build a campfire
Out in the wilderness
The city air has been known to clog my airways,
These rolling fields make me feel
Like I'm home again.

In my foolish ignorance, this is what I believe
Heartbreaks a second, and big Hollywood endings
But I don't want this to be another empty promise
The likes of which are made,
On an all too regular basis.
