Cow Cow Boogie
Don Raye, Benny Carter, Gene De Paul
Out on the plains, down near Santa Fe
I met a cowboy, ridin' the range one day
And as he jogged along, I heard him singin'
A most peculiar cowboy song
It was a ditty, he learned in the city
Comma ta ai yai yeah, Comma ta yippity yai yeah
Get along, get hip little doggies
Get along, You better be on your way
Get along, get hip little doggies
An' he trucked 'em on down, that old fairway
Singin' his Cow Cow Boogie in the strangest way
Comma ta ai yai yeah, Comma ta yippity yai yeah
Singin' his cowboy songs, he's Just too much
He's got a knocked out western accent,
with a harlem touch
He was raised on loco weed
He's what you call, a swing half breed
Singin' his Cow Cow Booogie
in the strangest way
Comma ta ai yai yeah, Comma ta yippity yai yeah
