Well tell me do you think it'd be alright If I could just crash here tonight You can see I'm in no shape for driving Anyway I've got no place to go And you know it might not be that bad You were the best I'd ever had If I hadn't blown the whole thing years ago I may not be alone Tomorrow we can drive around this town And let the cops chase us around The past is gone but something might be found to take its place Hey Jealousy Hey Jealousy Hey Jealousy Hey Jealousy You can trust me not to think And not to sleep around And if you don't expect to much from me You might not be let down 'Cause all I really want is to be with you Feeling like I matter too If I hadn't blown the whole thing years ago I might be here with you Tomorrow we can drive around this town And let the cops chase us around The past is gone but something might be found to take its place Hey Jealousy Tomorrow we can drive around this town And let the cops chase us around The past is gone but something might be found to take its place Hey Jealousy Hey Jealousy Hey Jealousy Hey Jealousy Well tell me do you think it'd be alright If I could just crash here tonight You can see I'm in no shape for driving And anyway I've got no place to go And you know it might not be that bad You were the best I'd ever had If I hadn't blown the whole thing years ago I may not be alone Tomorrow we can drive around this town And let the cops chase us around The past is gone but something might be found to take its place Hey Jealousy Hey Jealousy You know she took my heart Well there's only one thing I couldn't start

"Hey Jealousy" foi regravada para o álbum *New Miserable Experience* de 1992, embora já estivesse presente no álbum de estreia *Dusted* de 1989.
A canção foi escrita por Doug Hopkins, guitarrista principal da banda, que foi demitido antes do lançamento do álbum que a popularizou.
O tema alcançou a posição 25 na Billboard Hot 100 em outubro de 1993, marcando o primeiro hit da Gin Blossoms e tornando‑se a música‑assinatura do grupo.
A inspiração da letra vem da tentativa de Hopkins de reconquistar a ex‑namorada Cathy Swafford, que o havia deixado por causa de seu alcoolismo e infidelidade.
A faixa recebeu certificação de ouro nos Estados Unidos pela RIAA, comprovando vendas superiores a 500 mil unidades.
No dia de sua estreia na Billboard Top 100, 24 de julho de 1993, o guitarrista Jesse Valenzuela brincou que a música “estava em todo lugar”, até mesmo nas lojas Lowe’s.
