Jersey Strong

You won't stop us 
no matter what you
throw at us there's
no quit in all of us 
the world won't stop
turning so jersey won't
stop moving forward 
you can bend us but 
won't ever break us 
Jersey strong that's
how I was born and 
raised

There's a lot of recovering to do in the aftermath of Sandy. You are right. We New Jersey people are strong. Good write.
