Camptown Races

[D] Camptown ladies sing this song, [A7] Doo-dah! doo-dah!  [D] Camptown race-track five miles long, [A7] Oh, doo-dah [D] day!
[D] I came down with my hat caved in, [A7] Doo-dah! doo-dah!  [D] I’m goin back home with a pocket full of tin, [A7] Oh, doo-dah [D] day!

{ CHORUS } – – – – – [D] Going to run all [G] night! Going to run all [D] day!    I’ll bet my money on the bob-tail nag,  [A7] Somebody bet on the [D] bay.

[D] The long tail filly and the big black horse, [A7] Doo-dah! doo-dah!  [D] They fly the track and cut across the course, [A7] Oh, doo-dah-[D] day!
[D] The blind horse stuck in a big mud hole, [A7] Doo-dah! doo-dah!  [D] Can’t touch bottom with a ten foot pole, [A7] Oh, doo-dah-[D] day!
 – – – – – { CHORUS } – – – – –
[D] Old brown cow come on to the track, [A7] Doo-dah! doo-dah!  [D] The bob-tail fling her over his back, [A7] Oh, doo-dah-[D] day!
[D] They fly along like a rail-road car, [A7] Doo-dah! doo-dah!  [D] Like runnin’ a race with a shootin’ star, [A7] Oh, doo-dah-[D] day!
 – – – – – { CHORUS } – – – – –
[D] See them flyin’ on a ten mile heat, [A7] Doo-dah doo-dah!  [D] Round the race track, then repeat, [A7] Oh, doo-dah-[D] day!
[D] I put all my money on the bob-tail nag, [A7] Doo-dah! doo-dah!  [D] I hauled my money in an old tow-bag, [A7] Oh, doo-dah-[D] day!
