Red, White and Jersey Lyrics

I knew before I knew ya
That you were gonna be the one
Slow dancing in the fast lane
That's just what we do where we come from

When you lean in to kiss me
Said, "Boy, you don't deserve me"
Yeah, we started cracking up
But now, look at us, look at us, look at us

Yeah, we held on tight
Looking up all night at the lights of New York City
When you're seventeen, those basic dreams where you're dreaming right there with me
It ain't no surprise that your blue eyes still feel like home to me
We'll always be red, white, and Jersey

That summer with the top down
We were singing along to American Girl
Big diamond in a small town
When it was you and me against the world
Yeah, we both didn't know any better
That we'd live like that forever

Yeah, we held on tight
Looking up all night at the lights of New York City
When you're seventeen, those basic dreams where you're dreaming right there with me
It ain't no surprise that your blue eyes still feel like home to me
We'll always be red, white, and Jersey

Now, where have all the summers gone?
Here we are, still going strong, going strong, going strong

Yeah, we held on tight
Looking up all night at the lights of New York City
When you're seventeen, those basic dreams where you're dreaming right there with me
It ain't no surprise that your blue eyes still feel like home to me
We'll always be red, white, and Jersey

Red, white, and Jersey
Red, white, and Jersey
