De Camptown ladies
sing dis song,
Doo-dah! Doo-dah!
De Camptown race track five miles long,
Oh! Doo-dah day!
I come down dah wid my hat caved in,
Doo-dah! Doo-dah!
I go back home wid a pocket full of tin,
Oh! Doo-dah day!
Chorus: Goin' to run all night!
Goin' to run all day!
I'll bet my money on de bob-tail nag,
Somebody bet on the bay.
De longtail filly and de big
black hoss,
Doo-dah! Doo-dah!
Dey fly de track and dey both cut across,
Oh! Doo-dah day!
De blind hoss stick'n in a big mud hole,
Doo-dah! Doo-dah!
Can't touch the botton wid a ten foot pole,
Oh! Doo-dah day!
Chorus
Old muley cow come on de track,
Doo-dah! Doo-dah!
De bob-tail flung her ober his back,
Oh! Doo-dah day!
Den fly along like a railroad car,
Doo-dah! Doo-dah!
And run a race with a shootin' star,
Oh! Doo-dah day!
Chorus
See dem flyin' on a ten mile
heat,
Doo-dah! Doo-dah!
Round de race track, then repeat,
Oh! Doo-dah day!
I win my money on de bob-tail nag,
Doo-dah! Doo-dah!
I keep my moneyin an old tow bag,
Oh! Doo-dah day!
Chorus
