What is the Brooklyn song Red sings around the bar table?


Here are the incomplete "lyrics" that I could make out:

"they know my shield from evansville (?) to cheyenne"

"you can keep your other places give me that oasis"

"and the girls are all maternity cases"

"it's just as hot as cheyenne"

"if you dont like the bronx queens or staten well you know where you can stick old manhattan"

"b postrophe k postrophe L-Y-N USA"

IT STUMPS GOOGLE. HELP!
