The camp-town lad-ies sing this song,

doo-dah, doo-dah!

The camp-town race track's five miles long,

Oh, doo-dah-day!

I went down there with my hat caved in,
  5  -4    5  -4
doo-dah, doo-dah!
  6    6   6    5    6  6  -6   6  5
I'll go back home with a case of gin,
-4   5  -4   4
Oh, doo-dah-day!

Gon-na run all night, gon-na run all day,
  6    6   6 5   5  6  6   -6   6   5
I'll bet my mon-ey on the bob-tail nag,
 -4   5 -5  5  -4  -4  4
Some-bod-y bet on the bay.
