Lyrics

[00:02.32] Oh, what was your name in the States
[00:05.67] Was it Thompson or Johnson or Bates
[00:08.73] Did you happen to draw on your mother-in-law
[00:11.90] Or sink the old lady with weights, my friend
[00:14.32] Eh, What was you name in the States?...Oh, come on my boys
[00:19.19]
[00:19.19] What was your name in the States
[00:22.11] Was it Murphy, MacDonald or Gates
[00:25.31] Did you hold up a bank as a juvenile prank
[00:28.28] And pack up the money in crates, my friend
[00:31.81] What was your name in the States?...Tell the truth...
[00:36.05]
[00:36.06] Oh, what was your name in the States
[00:38.93] Now yuh must have had some honest traits (I doubt it)
[00:42.24] Did you try to abscond with a beautiful blond
[00:45.50] Such minor offenses we tolerates
[00:48.53] Eh, What was your name in the States?
[00:52.64]
[00:52.65] Sure, an' what was your name in New York
[00:55.84] Was it Clancy, O'Toole or O'Rourke
[00:58.88] Are you wanted for life 'cause you left your poor wife
[01:02.36] When she caught you sniffing a cork, my friend
[01:05.50] What was your name in New York?...
[01:10.00]
[01:10.01] Oh, what was your name in the East
[01:12.67] And how recently was you released
[01:15.77] Are you ridin' the rails 'cause you held up the mails
[01:19.19] Or was it the females you held, you beast
[01:22.03] Oh, What was your name in the East?
[01:26.25]
[01:26.26] Oh, what was your name in the States

[01:44.00]
[01:44.01] Oh, what was your name in the States
[01:46.16] Though you've suffered the cruelest of fates
[01:49.36] 'Way out here in the West, every body's a guest
[01:52.49] So line up and fill up your plates, my friend
[01:56.00] Who ever you are in the States
