Song lyrics

Camptown ladies sing dis song - doo-dah, doo-dah
Camptown race-track five miles long - oh, doo-dah day
I came 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

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
Fly de track and dey both cut across - oh, doo-dah-day
De blind hoss sticken in a big mud hole - doo-dah, doo-dah
Can't touch bottom wid a ten foot pole - oh, doo-dah-day

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, doo-dah
De bob-tail fling her ober his back - oh, doo-dah-day
Fly along like a rail-road car - doo-dah, doo-dah
Runnin' a race wid a shootin' star - oh, doo-dah-day

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

See dem flyin' on a ten mile heat - doo-dah, doo-dah
Round de race track, den repeat - oh, doo-dah-day
I win my money on de bob-tail nag - doo-dah, doo-dah
I keep my money in an old tow-bag - oh, doo-dah-day

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
