Highway 9, usually called Route 9, runs north and south through a large part of Jersey. Specifically, it connects the two parts of Jersey that Bruce seems to identify most with. One is "My Hometown" and Bruce's- Freehold, NJ. The other is Asbury Park, NJ. This song is one of my favorites by a hometown legend.
