“Camptown Races”
by Stephen Foster
De Camptown ladies sing dis song—Doo-dah! doo-dah!
De Camp-town race-track five miles long—Oh! doo-dah day!
I come down dah wid my hat caved in—Doo-dah! doo-dah!
I go back home wid a pocket full of tin—Oh! doo-dah day!
[Chorus]
Gwine to run all night!
Gwine to run all day!
I’ll bet my money on de bob-tail nag—
Somebody bet on de bay.
De long tail filly and de big black hoss—Doo-dah! doo-dah!
Dey fly de track and dey both cut across—Oh! doo-dah-day!
De blind hoss sticken in a big mud hole—Doo-dah! doo-dah!
Can’t touch bottom wid a ten foot pole—Oh! doo-dah-day!
[Chorus]
Old muley cow com onto de track—Doo-dah! doo-dah!
De bob-tail fling her ober his back—Oh! doo-dah-day!
Den fly along like a rail-road car—Doo-dah! doo-dah!
Runnin’ a race wid a shootin’ star—Oh! Doo-dah-day!
[Chorus]
See dem flyin’ on a ten mile heat—Doo-dah! doo-dah!
Round de race track, den repeat—Oh! doo-dah-day!
I win my money on de bob-tail nag—Doo-dah! doo-dah!
I keep my money in an old tow-bag—Oh! Doo-dah-day!
[Chorus]

“Oh! Susanna”
by Stephen Foster
I come from Alabama
With my banjo on my knee
I’m going to Louisiana
My true love for to see.
(Chorus:)
Oh, Susanna!
Oh, don’t you cry for me
For I come from Alabama
With a banjo on my knee
It rained all night the day
I left the weather it was dry
The sun so hot I froze to death
Susanna, don’t you cry
(Chorus)
I had a dream the other night
When everything was still
I thought I saw Susanna
A-coming down the hill
(Chorus)
A red, red rose was in her hand
The tear was in her eye
I said, “I come from Dixieland
Susanna, don’t you cry.”
(Chorus)
I soon will be in New Orleans
And then I’ll look around
And when I find Susanna
I’ll fall upon the ground.
(Chorus)
But if I do not find her
I will surely die
And when I’m dead and buried
Susanna, don’t you cry.
(Chorus)
