Concrete Road
(C.Goff. S. Kennedy)
Almost fatal, north New Jersey
Newark Airport. Pulaski skyway.
Pollution's old there, killed off all the trees,
Trash piled up in the mountains, blowin in the breeze.
Chorus:
Concrete Road, take me home to the place I belong,
Jersey City, Bayonne Mama, take me home Concrete Road.
All the horseflies gather 'round her
Refinery lady, stranger to clean water;
Dark and dirty, floatin' in the sky
Disgusting smell of sewage, cinders in your eye.
Chorus:
I hear her voice from the cheap motel she calls me
Sirens remind me that the cops aren't far away
And drivin' down the road I get a feelin'
I ain't got the toll again today-
Chorus:
Molly Pitcher,
Richard Stockton,
Vince Lombardi,
Admiral William Halsey,
Clara Barton,
Woodrow Wilson, too
J. Fenimore Cooper,
John Fenwick, Joyce Kilmer
I love you, and old
Walt Witman, too,
And Grover Cleveland, too,
And Alexander Hamilton, too,
And Thomas A. Edison, too.
