Camptown Races
(Stephen Foster)

De Campptown ladies sing this somg,
     Doo-da, Doo-da
De Camptown racetrack's two miles long
     Oh, de doo-da day

cho: Gwine to run all night
     Gwine to run all day
     I bet my money on a bob-tailed nag
     Somebody bet on the gray.

Oh, de long tailed filly and de big black horse,
     Doo-da, doo-da@00-da,
Come to a mud hole and dey all cut across,
     Oh, de doo-da day.

I wnt down South with my hat caved in,
I came back North with a pocket full of tin.
