Tom Waits and Kathleen Brennan speak at the PEN/Song Lyrics Awards for Literary Excellence honoring John Prine and Kathleen Brennan & Tom Waits at the John F. Kennedy Presidential Library and Museum on September 19, 2016 in Boston, Massachusetts.
Retry Correct Incorrect Although Bruce Springsteen’s cover of “Jersey Girl” didn’t top the charts, it’s become enough of a mainstay in his concerts that fans could be forgiven for thinking he wrote it. But in fact, it’s Waits’s ode to his now-wife Kathleen Brennan (right) that he performed alongside Springsteen once in 1981. Far Out magazine quoted Springsteen as saying, “I remember it was one of those songs I said, ‘Well, I wish I’d wrote that.’ It’s a song called ‘Jersey Girl,’ and Tom Waits is gonna sing it with us.”
