VERSES 1 & 2:
Hear ‘em honk - I’m not listenin
in the lane - traffic’s glistenin
A beautiful sight - I’m happy tonight
drivin in a Jersey wonderland

Gone away - are the blue skies
here to stay - hard-to-view skies
There aren’t many stars - in this world of ours
drivin in a Jersey wonderland

BRIDGE A:
On the Turnpike we will wait for no man
we’ll pretend a trucker’s Jackson Brown
He’ll give us the finger, we’ll say “no man,
we just wanna pass if you’ll slow down

VERSE 3:
Later on - I’ll refu-el
as you pee - on the stoo-el
And face unafraid - the traffic we made
drivin in a Jersey wonderland

[WHISTLING VERSE]

BRIDGE B:
At the meadowlands there’ll be a slowdown
as construction crews are doing work
Then I’m tempted to go off and mow down
that trucker who before was such a jerk

VERSE 4:
We’ll hang out - on the blacktop
as we eat - at the truck stop
We’ll frolic and play - the New Jersey way
drivin in a Jersey wonderland

OUTRO:
Drivin in a Jersey wonderland
Drivin - - - in a Jersey - - - wonderland
