Namesake Blues
I'm heading for Ho-Ho-Kus
I got a stone in my shoe
For a little hocus-pocus
Some razzle dazzle too
It's north of New Orleans
And it's east of Baton Rouge
I learned as a young man
Doin' favors ain't my jam
Good people please understand
There's a reason for who I am
Once I was treated with ingratitude
And the back of someone's hand
Across the Delaware, ahead lies my namesake
Yeah I'm crossing the Delaware
Just like George the Great
I might drop by a diner to ask
"Do fries come with that shake?"
Jersey girls don't pump no gas
Jersey girls don't pump no gas
They wouldn't do it anyhow, so don't bother to ask
When I'm down the shore
Eatin' funnel cake by the sea
Italian prisoners of war bake thirty cannoli
I might stroll down the boardwalk
Watch the tram car please
During a solar eclipse, the moon blocks the sun
I watch your lips say: "The moon blocks the sun"
We won't have to wait till nighttime
For you and me to have some fun
I got a stone in my shoe
For a little hocus-pocus
Some razzle dazzle too
It's north of New Orleans
And it's east of Baton Rouge
I learned as a young man
Doin' favors ain't my jam
Good people please understand
There's a reason for who I am
Once I was treated with ingratitude
And the back of someone's hand
Across the Delaware, ahead lies my namesake
Yeah I'm crossing the Delaware
Just like George the Great
I might drop by a diner to ask
"Do fries come with that shake?"
Jersey girls don't pump no gas
Jersey girls don't pump no gas
They wouldn't do it anyhow, so don't bother to ask
When I'm down the shore
Eatin' funnel cake by the sea
Italian prisoners of war bake thirty cannoli
I might stroll down the boardwalk
Watch the tram car please
During a solar eclipse, the moon blocks the sun
I watch your lips say: "The moon blocks the sun"
We won't have to wait till nighttime
For you and me to have some fun
