Camptown Races

S. Foster

arrangement by the Duhks

INTRO: D

G

The Camptown ladies sing this song

D

Doo-dah, doo-dah

G

The Camptown racetrack's five miles long

D G

Oh de-doo-dah-day

The long tail filly and the big black hoss

Doo-dah, doo-dah

They fly the track and they both cut across

Oh de-doo-dah-day

CHORUS:

G G7

Goin' to run all night

C G

Goin' to run all day

G

I'll bet my money on the bobtail nag

D

Somebody bet on the bay

I come down with my hat caved in

Doo-dah, doo-dah

I go back home with a pocket full of tin

Oh-de-doo-dah-day

The blind hoss stickin' in a big mud hole

Doo-dah, doo-dah

Can't touch the bottom with a ten foot pole

Oh-de-doo-dah-day

CHORUS

Old brown cow came onto the track

Doo-dah, doo-dah

The bobtail fling her over his back

Oh-de-doo-dah-day

They fly along like a railraod car

Doo-dah, doo-dah

Runnin' a race with a shootin' star

Oh-de-doo-dah-day

CHORUS

See them flyin' on a ten mile heat

Doo-dah, doo-dah

Round the racetrack then repeat

Oh-de-doo-dah-day

I win my money on the bobtail nag

Doo-dah, doo-dah

I keep my money in an old tow-bag

Oh-de-doo-dah-day

CHORUS
