New Jersey State Song

• I'm From New Jersey Written Music by Red
  Mascara
• I know of a state that's a perfect playland with
  white sandy beaches by the seaWith fun-filled
  mountains, lakes and parks, and folks with
  hospitalityWith historic towns where battles
  were fought, and presidents have made their
  homeIt's called New Jersey, and I toast and
  tout it wherever I may roam. 'Cause . . .
• I'M FROM NEW JERSEY and I'm proud about it, I
  love the Garden State.I'M FROM NEW JERSEY and I
  want to shout it, I think it's simply great.All
  of the other states throughout the nation may
  mean a lot to someBut I wouldn't want another,
  Jersey is like no other, I'm glad that's where
  I'm from.
• If you want glamour, try Atlantic City or
  Wildwood by the seaThen there is Trenton,
  Princeton, and Fort Monmouth, they all made
  history.Each little town has got that certain
  something, from High Point to Cape MayAnd some
  place like Mantoloking, Phillipsburg, or Hoboken
  will steal your heart away.
