The Kingston Trio — Dogies Lament

[Verse 1] As I was out walkin' one mornin' for pleasure I spied a cow puncher a-ridin' along His hat was thrown back and his spurs were a-jinglin' And as he approached he was singin' this song [Chorus] Whoopee ti yi yo, get along, little dogie It's your misfortune and none of my own Whoopee ti yi yo, get along, little dogie You know that Wyoming will be your new home [Verse 2] It's early in the spring when they round up the dogies We mark 'em and brand 'em and bob off their tails Round up the horses, load up the chuck wagon Then send the dogies out on the long tail [Chorus] Whoopee ti yi yo, get along, little dogie It's your misfortune and none of my own Whoopee ti yi yo, get along, little dogie You know that Wyoming will be your new home [Verse 3] Your mother was raised a-way down in Texas Where the Jimsonweed and the sandburs grow We'll feed you up on prickly pear and cholla And then send you loping to old Idaho [Chorus] Whoopee ti yi yo, get along, little dogie It's your misfortune and none of my own Whoopee ti yi yo, get along, little dogie You know that Wyoming will be your new home [Outro] You know that Wyoming will be your new home
