This is a real old cowboy song from the end of the old era when cowboys rode horses and rounded up cattle and didn't just make tv films about the good old cowboy days. Published in 1910.

Git Along Little Dogies

G                                    D7
As I was a walking one morning for pleasure
G                                D7       
I spied a cowpuncher a riding alone

G                                             D7               G
His hat was thrown back and his spurs was a jingling
G                                        D7              G     
As he approached he was singing this song

 

                G                C              D7     
Whoopee ti yi yo  git along little doggies
       G                                           A7  D
 It’s your misfortune and none of my own

                G                C              D7     
Whoopee ti yi yo  git along little doggies
        G                                   A7         D7   G
You know that Wyoming will be your new home

 

 G                                      D7
Some fellows goes up the trail for pleasure
G                                           D7      
But that’s where they got it most awfully wrong

G                                              D7
They haven’t an idea the trouble they give us
G                               D7               G
As we go a driving them doggies a – long.. CHORUS
