Thread Name: Who recorded 'Who Threw The Overalls...'
Subject: ... The Overalls In Mistress Murphy's Chowder
The song was written by Giefer in 1898 but
You can hear Edward Favor's 1901 recording of the song here..
The lyrics he sings are "Mrs. Murphy" and "Tim Nolan," not "Mistress Murphy" and "McGinty."
Apparently, Julie Andrews also recorded it. http://www.musicnotes.com/sheetmusic/mtdVPE.asp?ppn=MN0056424_U7.
