I will be waiting in vain / After all that you did I must be insane / But I, I’ll still be waiting there for you.

Where do I start? I have so much to say / Where do I start? I need to find the way.

Time to pick things up and start moving again/Time to stop talking and start doing again/Time to actually do what you tell yourself you do.

Banish those spirits that are watching from the woods / rip out that devil lurking under the hood.

Thanksgiving is also the anniversary of making Asbury Park mine … falling in love with the Jersey Shore, not just at the Jersey Shore.

The era is over for thinking small / From this point forward, we’re thinking bigger.

Sometimes, you just don't realize how fast time is passing.

From Sea Bright down to Seaside I rule.

Well, they got their hopes, they got their dreams / They got their plans and well-laid schemes.

California coming back / Put ambitions back on track / California thundercrack / Out of the red, into the black!

The end of the trip / All the way from New Jersey to California.

What sort of universal truth do I seek in these desert sands / What sort of private epiphany will I find?

And the road keeps on going and the beast keeps on rolling / Until I’m up and over the Great Divide.

Not the usual “Shabbos” that I don’t roll for / But still an opportunity to loosen my load.

I’ll sing my blues ‘cuz I’ll have paid my dues / So let me say, amen.

Strange things are happening / As I head deeper west.

Arise, and cross this land / Its whole length surveyed, its whole breadth spanned.

They ain’t what they used to be / And when they’re getting on my case / Lord, they got the best of me.

I’m alive, I’m here, what more is there to say?

i.e., Jersey guy in LA, in Jersey.
