Don Edwards - Whoopie Ti Yi Yo lyrics

As I was walking one morning for pleasure I spied a cowpuncher come a-loping along His hat was throwed back and his spurs was a-jingling As he approached he was singing this song Ti yi yo, little laddy lie easy Who's your real daddy may never be known Weeping and wailing and rocking the cradle Minding a baby that's none of my own Well it's early in spring that we round up the dogies We mark 'em, we brand 'em, we bob off their tails Round up the horses, load up the chuck wagon Throw them little dogies out on that long trail Whoopie-ti-yi-yo, get along little dogie It's your misfortune, and none of my own Whoopie-ti-yi-yo, get along little dogie For you know that Wyoming will be your new home Well your ma was born way down in Texas Where the jimson weed and the sand-burrs grow We'll fill you up on prickly pear and cholla Until you're ready for Idaho Whoopie-ti-yi-yo, get along little dogie Your misfortune, and none of my own Whoopie-ti-yi-yo, get along little dogie For you know Wyoming will be your new home Now some boys they go up the cow trail for pleasure But that's where they get it most awfully wrong If you had no idea all the troubles they give To the boys who are holding them on the bed ground Ti yi yo, little laddy lie easy Who's your real daddy may never be known Weeping and wailing and rocking the cradle Minding a baby that's none of my own Whoopie-ti-yi-yo, get along little dogie Your misfortune, and none of my own Whoopie-ti-yi-yo, get along little dogie For you know Wyoming will be your new home
