What’s My Name

(Colin Hay)

From Paul to John
To playing in German bars
From mono to stereo

Hitting number one
And having all the fun
And lighting up the radio

Nothing stays the same
But I’m still in the game
What’s my name
Ringo

Spinning round and round
We broke the speed of sound
Tearing up the freeway

With the tumbling
of the dice
And gettin’ bad advice
We have to call a mayday

You said you’d never last
We’re a thing of the past
But I can still
rock ‘n’ roll

You can’t deny
That we’re doing
something right
It’s not my first rodeo

Nothing stays the same
But I’m still in the game
What’s my name
Ringo

I can’t get enough
A piece of love
This is what I’ve
come to understand

I’ll pull myself together
Through all kinds of weather
I give you everything I can

Well I’ve seen it all
From the mountains of Nepal
To Reno, Nevada

I’ve taken all the falls
I was climbing up the walls
And now it doesn’t matter

Nothing stays the same
But I’m still in the game
What’s my name
Ringo

Now I’m playing on the run
And there is only one
What’s my name
Ringo

I can feel the love
From the stars above
What’s my name
Ringo

Following the sun
Where the river runs
What’s my name
Ringo

Now I’ve raised my hands
All across the lands
What’s my name
Ringo

Nothing stays the same
But I’m still in the game
Nothing stays the same
But I’m still in the game
Nothing stays the same
But I’m still in the game
Hey, what’s my name
Ringo

What’s my name
Ringo
