"Baby, we were born to...sit on the George Washington Bridge for several hours a day? New Jersey native Bruce Springsteen took on Gov. Chris Christie&amp;apos;s headline-making traffic scandal in a hilarious parody song with future Tonight Show host Jimmy Fallon on Tuesday, Jan. 14.\r\n\r\nThe duo -- both in sleeveless denim shirts, red bandanas, and sunglasses -- reworked Springsteen&amp;apos;s classic &amp;quot;Born to Run&amp;quot; as &amp;quot;Governor Chris Christie&amp;apos;s Fort Lee New Jersey Traffic Jam.&amp;quot; (Christie is a huge fan of the E Street Band rocker and has said he&amp;apos;s been to more than 100 of the Boss&amp;apos; concerts.)\r\nThe parody song skewered &amp;quot;Bridgegate&amp;quot; with biting lyrics about being stuck in traffic and then having to listen to Christie&amp;apos;s two-hour press conference about the scandal. (&amp;quot;It was longer than one of my own damn shows!&amp;quot; Springsteen joked.)\r\n\r\n\r\n&amp;quot;Maybe this Bridgegate was just payback / It&amp;apos;s a bitch slap to the state Democrats / We gotta get out but we can&amp;apos;t / We&amp;apos;re stuck in Governor Chris Christie&amp;apos;s Fort Lee New Jersey traffic jam,&amp;quot; Fallon crooned into the mic.\r\n\r\n&amp;quot;Someday, Governor, I don&amp;apos;t know when / This will all end,&amp;quot; he continued.\r\n&amp;quot;But &amp;apos;til then, you&amp;apos;re killing the working man / Who&amp;apos;s stuck in the Governor Chris Christie Fort Lee New Jersey traffic jam,&amp;quot; Springsteen joined in.\r\nWatch the full video above, and tell Us: What do you think of the parody?"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
