As I was our walkin one morning for pleasure,

I spied a young cow-puncher ridin' along.

    C               F            G7          C
His hat was throwed back and his spurs were ajinglin',

and as he approached he was singin' this song:

Whoop-ee ti-yi-yo, git along little dogies,

It's your misfortune and none of my own.

You know that Wyoming will be your new home.

Early in the springtime we round up the dogies

C                  F                G7            C
We mark 'em and we brand 'em   then bob off their tails

      C      F          G7             C
Round up the horses and load the chuck wagon

     C                 F            G7         C
Then throw them little dogies right out on the trail
[Chorus]

Whoop-ee ti-yi-yo, git along little dogies,
