De Camptown Races

De Camptown ladies sing dis song—Doo-dah!

De Camp-town race-track five miles long—Oh!
doo-dah day!
I come down dah wid my hat caved in—Doo-dah!

I go back home wid a pocket full of tin—Oh!

Gwine to run all night!
Gwine to run all day!
I’ll bet my money on de bob-tail nag—
Somebody bet on de bay
De long tail filly and de big black hoss—Doo-dah!
doo-dah!
Dey fly de track and dey both cut across—Oh!

De blind hoss sticken in a big mud hole—Doo-dah!

Can’t touch bottom wid a ten foot pole—Oh!

Gwine to run all night!
Gwine to run all day!
I’ll bet my money on de bob-tail nag—
Somebody bet on de bay
Old muley cow come on to de track—Doo-dah!

De bob-tail fling her ober his back—Oh!

Den fly along like a rail-road car—Doo-dah!

Runnin' a race wid a shootin' star—Oh!

Gwine to run all day!
I’ll bet my money on de bob-tail nag—
Somebody bet on de bay
