The Camptown ladies sing this song,
Doo-dah, doo-dah!
The Camptown race-track five miles long,
Oh, doo-dah day!
I come down here with my hat caved in,
Doo-dah, doo-dah!
I go back home with my pocket full of tin,
Oh, doo-dah day!
Refrain:
Goin' to run all night!
Goin' to run all day!
I'll bet my money on a bobtail nag,
Somebody bet on the bay.
The longtailed filly and the big black hoss,
Doo-dah, doo-dah!
They fly the track and both get across,
Oh, doo-dah day!
The blind hoss stickin' in a big mud hole,
Doo-dah, doo-dah!
Can't touch bottom with a ten foot pole,
Oh, doo-dah day!
Old muley cow come on the track,
Doo-dah, doo-dah!
The bobtail fling her over his back,
Oh, doo-dah day!
Then fly along like a railroad car,
Chukka-chukka-chukka-chukka-chukka...
Runnin' a race with a shootin' star,
Oh, doo-dah day!
Oh see them flyin' on a ten mile heat,
Doo-dah, doo-dah!
Around the race track, then repeat,
Oh, doo-dah day!
Yes! I bet my money on the bobtail nag,
Doo-dah, doo-dah!
I keep my money in an old tow bag,
Oh, doo-dah day!
