[D] Had no time [G] for the corner boys Down in the street making [D] all that noise
Blowing no hoes on 8th Avenue [Em] Cause [A]
tonight [D] I'm gonna be with you
Cause tonight I'm gonna [G] take that ride Cross the river to [D] the Jersey side
Take my baby to the carnival [Em] And [A] I'll take you [D] on all the rides
Down the shore [G] everything's alright You and your baby [D] on a Saturday night
Don't you know all my dreams come true [Em] When [A] I'm walking [D] down the street with you
Sing sha [G]

You'll lose [G] me with all the joy When I'm wrapped [D] up in my baby's arms
My little angel gives me [Em] everything [A] I know someday [D] I'll have you wear my ring
Don't bother me [G] cause I got no time I'm on my way to [D] see that girl of mine
Nothing else matters in this whole wide [Em] world No real love [D] but that Jersey girl
