The camptown ladies sing the song,
Doo-dah! doo-dah!
The camptown race-track five miles long,
Oh, doo-dah day!
I come down there with my hat caved in,
Doo-dah! doo-dah!
I go back home with a pocket full of tin,
Oh, doo-dah day!
Gonna run all night!
Gonna run all day!
I'll bet my money on a bob-tail nag,
Somebody bet on the bay.
The long tail filly and the big black horse,
Doo-dah! doo-dah!
They fly the track and they both cut across,
Oh, doo-dah-day!
The blind hoss sticken in a big mud hole,
Doo-dah! doo-dah!
Can't touch bottom with a ten foot pole,
Oh, doo-dah-day!
Gonna run all night!
Gonna run all day!
I'll bet my money on a bob-tail nag,
Somebody bet on the bay.
Gonna run all night!
Gonna run all day!
I'll bet my money on a bob-tail nag,
Somebody bet on the bay.
