Lyrics:
Camptown ladies sing this song, doo-dah, doo-dah.
Camptown racetrack five miles long, oh da-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 da-doo-dah-day.
Going to run all night, going to run all day.
I’ll bet my money on the bobtail nag,
Somebody bet on the gray.
The long-tail filly and the big black horse, doo-dah, doo-dah.
They fly the track and they both cut across, oh da-doo-dah-day.
The blind horse sticking in a big mud hole, doo-dah, doo-dah.
Can’t touch the bottom with a ten-foot pole, oh da-doo-dah-day.
Going to run all night, going to run all day.
I’ll bet my money on the bobtail nag,
Somebody bet on the gray.
See them flying on a ten-mile heat, doo-dah, doo-dah.
Round the racetrack, then repeat, oh da-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 da-doo-dah-day.
Going to run all night, going to run all day.
I’ll bet my money on the bobtail nag,
Somebody bet on the gray,
Somebody bet on the gray,
Somebody bet on the gray.
