We are so crowded we are never out of reach
You got to pay to get on the beach
In New Jersey only in New Jersey
We are tough we are defiant
Come to Jersey and watch the Giants
I found my thrill in Cherry Hill
But I’m stuck in traffic and standing still
The girls are so pretty
I just won in Atlantic City
We got Queen Latifah, Jon Bon Jovi, Bruce and Uncle Floyd
John Travolta, Danny Devito, Einstein, and Yogi Berra
The taxes are so very high
It makes you want to cry and say bye bye
Well I tried Arizona, tried Carolina
The grass was not greener
The streets were not cleaner
I wished I had stayed in New Jersey
I guess I have to accept my fate
I love, I love the Garden State
