The Kingston Trio – Dogies Lament (Guitar)

             Dm          G           C
As I was out walkin' one mornin' for pleasure

             Dm        G       C
I spied a cowpuncher a-ridin' along

                   Dm           G            C
His hat was thrown back and his spurs were a-jinglin'

            Dm              G            C
and as he approached he was singin' this song

        G              C
Whoopee ki yi yo, get along, little dogie

     G                   C
It's your misfortune and none of my own

              F        G            C
Whoopee ki yi yo, get along, little dogie

                F          G           C
You know that Wyoming will be your new home

                  Dm             G            C
It's early in the spring when we round up the dogies

                  Dm            G             C
They mark 'em and brand 'em and bob off their tails

                  Dm           G            C
They round up the horses, load up the chuck-wagon

              Dm         G           C
Then send the dogies out on the long trail

        G              C
Whoopee ki yi yo, get along, little dogie

     G                   C
It's your misfortune and none of my own

              F        G            C
Whoopee ki yi yo, get along, little dogie

                F          G           C
You know that Wyoming will be your new home

                  Dm       G           C
Your mother was a-raised a-way down in Texas

                Dm           G         C
Where the Jimsonweed and the sandburrs grow

               Dm    G            C
We'll feed you up on prickly pear cholla

                  Dm         G      C
And then send you roamin' to old Idaho

        G              C
Whoopee ki yi yo, get along, little dogie

     G                   C
It's your misfortune and none of my own

              F        G            C
Whoopee ki yi yo, get along, little dogie

                F          G           C
You know that Wyoming will be your new home

                F          G           C
You know that Wyoming will be your new home
