I ain't got no time [A] for the corner boys
Down the street making [D] all that noise
Or the girls out on [A] the avenue
Plus tonight I [D] wanna be with you
Tonight [G] I'm gonna take [Bm] that ride
[G] Cross the river to [D] the Jersey side
Take my baby to [A] the carnival
Then I'll take her [D] on all her rides
Cause down the shore [G] everything's alright
You and your baby [D] on the satellite line
And you know all [A] my dreams come true
When I'm walking down [D] the street
With you
Sing sha la la la [G] la la la
Sha la la la [D] la la la

You know she treats me [G] with all her charms
When I'm wrapped up in my [D] baby's arms
My little girl she gives [A] me everything
I know someday that [D] she will marry
So don't bother me [G] man I ain't got no time
I'm on my way to see this [D] girl of mine
Cause nothing matters in this [A] whole wide world

You know she thrills me with [G] all her tunes I know this job of yours leaves you so [D] inspired
When I come back [A] to take you out to eat You're lying all dressed [G] up on a bed, baby
[D] fast asleep Go in the bathroom, put [G] your makeup on
We're gonna take that little brat [D] of yours and drop her off at your mama's home
I know a joint [A] where the dancing's free Now baby, baby, won't [D] you come with me?
Cause down the shore [G] everything's alright We're young and baby [D] on a Saturday night
There's nothing matters in this [A] whole wide world
