Early North Jersey industrial skyline. I'm an all-set cobra jet creepin' through the night time. Gotta find a gas station gotta find a pay phone. This turnpike sure is spooky at night when you're all alone. I'm living on the edge of the world. Tryin' to get my girl on the line. Livin' on the edge of the world. But I think it's just a waste of my time. Some jerk keeps breaking my connection girl. 'Cause I'm living on the edge of the world. Living on the edge of the world. Radio radio hear my tale of heartbreak. New Jersey in the morning like a lunar landscape. Got a counter girl at the Exit 24 HoJo. Down past the refinery towers where the great black river flows. I'm living on the edge of the world. Tryin' to get back to you girl. Living on the edge of the world. Tryin' to get a message through. I gotta make a connection girl. Because I'm living on the edge of the world. Living on the edge of the world. Radio's jammed with gospel stations. Lost souls callin' long distance salvation. Hey mister deejay gotta hear my last prayer. It's a hey ho rock and roll deliver me from nowhere. I'm living on the edge of the world. Tryin' to get back to you girl. Living on the edge of the world. Tryin' to get a message through. I gotta make some connection girl. Because I'm living on the edge of the world. Living on the edge of the world. Now my boss don't dig me 'cause he put me on the night shift. It takes me two hours to get back to where my baby lives. In the wee wee hours my mind gets hazy. Relay towers won't you lead me to my baby. 'Neath the overpass the trooper hits his party lights switch. Good night good luck one two powershift.
