Effie

Madge and Mabel

Biddie

See them on the beach

Or in New York City

Tina, Louise

And Hazel and Mavis

Can you name, name, name, name them today?

Can you name, name, name, name them today?

[Verse 2]

Wanda and Janet

And Ronnie and Reba, oh

[PreChorus]

These are the girls of the USA

The principal girls of the USA

[Chorus]

Can you name, name, name, name them today?

Can you name, name, name, name them today?

[Bridge]

Oh

Kate

Kate and Cindy

And Crystal and Candy

Mercedes and Joan, Betty and Brenda

Suzie and Anita

And Phoebe and Jack-Jackie, oh

[PreChorus]

These are the girls of the USA

The principal girls of the USA

[Chorus]

Can you name, name, name, name them today?

Can you name, name, name, name them today?

[Outro]

Can you name, name, name?
