Strange Names [North New Jersey's Got em] - Steve Forbert

I’m from Piscataway, I’m going that-a-way

West on the Jersey map, out towards the Water Gap

Oh, h-ho ho

Oh, h-ho ho

I’ve seen Parsippany, northwest of Whippany

Mahwah to Hackensack, I’ve made the trip and back

Oh, h-ho ho

Oh, h-ho ho

Strange names, North New Jersey’s got 'em

Them strange names towns

Strange names, north New Jersey’s got 'em

Them strange names towns

Oh, h-ho ho

Hoboken’s got me stressed, I’m going to motor west

Out Succasunna way, Netcong or Rockaway

Oh, h-ho ho

Oh, h-ho ho

North New Jersey’s got strange names towns a lot

Your cool local spot may or it may have not

Your cool local spot may

I’ve seen Paramus, well, that’s next to Oradell

Hohokus takes the cake, wait, that’d be Cheesequake!

Oh, h-ho ho

Oh, h-ho Ho-ho-kus

Strange names, north New Jersey’s got 'em

Them strange names town

Strange names, North New Jersey’s got 'em

Them strange names towns

Oh, h-ho ho

North New Jersey’s got strange names towns a lot

Your cool local spot may or it may have not

Your cool local spot.

Your cool local spot may or it may have not

I’m from Piscataway, I’m going that-a-way
