Camptown Races Lyrics


Mormon Tabernacle Choir Camptown Races


The Campptown ladies sing this song, Doo-da, Doo-da The Camptown racetrack's five miles long Oh, de doo-da day

Goin' to run all night Goin' to run all day I bet my money on a bob-tailed nag Somebody bet on the gray

Oh, the long tailed filly and the big black horse, Doo-da, doo-da Come to a mud hole and they all cut across, Oh, de doo-da day

Goin' to run all night Goin' to run all day I bet my money on a bob-tailed nag Somebody bet on the gray

I went down there with my hat caved in, Doo-da, doo-da I came back home with a pocket full of tin Oh, de doo-da day

Goin' to run all night Goin' to run all day I bet my money on a bob-tailed nag Somebody bet on the gray

Longer Version

The Camptown ladies sing this song Doo-dah! Doo-dah! The Camptown racetrack's five miles long Oh! doo-dah day!

Goin' to run all night Goin' to run all day I bet my money on a bob-tailed nag Somebody bet on the gray

I come down there with my hat caved in Doo-dah! doo-dah! I go back home with a pocket full of tin Oh! de doo-dah day!

Goin' to run all night Goin' to run all day I bet my money on a bob-tailed nag Somebody bet on the gray

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!

Goin' to run all night Goin' to run all day I bet my money on a bob-tailed nag Somebody bet on the gray

The blind hoss sticken in a big mud hole Doo-dah! doo-dah! Can't touch bottom with a ten foot pole Oh! de doo-dah day!

Goin' to run all night Goin' to run all day I bet my money on a bob-tailed nag Somebody bet on the gray

Old muley cow come on to the track Doo-dah! Doo-dah! The bob-tail fling her over his back Oh! de doo-dah day!

Goin' to run all night Goin' to run all day I bet my money on a bob-tailed nag Somebody bet on the gray

Then fly along like a rail-road car Doo-dah! doo-dah! Runnin' a race with a shootin' star Oh! de doo-dah day!

Goin' to run all night Goin' to run all day I bet my money on a bob-tailed nag Somebody bet on the gray

See them flyin' on a ten mile heat Doo-dah! Doo-dah! Round the race track, then repeat Oh! doo-dah day!

Goin' to run all night Goin' to run all day I bet my money on a bob-tailed nag Somebody bet on the gray

I win my money on the bob-tail nag Doo-dah! doo-dah! I keep my money in an old tow-bag Oh! de doo-dah day!

Goin' to run all night Goin' to run all day I bet my money on a bob-tailed nag Somebody bet on the gray
