Whoopee Ti Yi Yo lyrics

One mornin' as I was a-walkin' for pleasure

I met a cowpuncher a-ridin' along

His hat was throwed back and his spurs were a-jinglin'

And as he approached, he was singin' this song:

Whoopee-ti-yi-yo, get along little dogies1

It's your misfortune and none of my own

Whoopee-ti-yi-yo, get along little dogies

You know that Wyoming will be your new home

Some boys go up the trail for pleasure,

That's where they gets it most awfully wrong.

They haven't any idea the trouble it gives us,

Keepin' those dogies a-rollin' along.

Whoopee-ti-yi-yo, get along little dogies

It's your misfortune and none of my own

Whoopee-ti-yi-yo, get along little dogies

You know that Wyoming will be your new home

1. In the language of the American West, a stray or motherless calf is known as a dogie.
