| Lyrics: | 1st verse:]
Down upon the track
On a horse's back
Warming up his fingers, sits the
ragtime jockey
Smile upon his face
Ready for the race
In his colors so gay
See
'em spread apart
Now they're goin' to start
Kindly keep an eye upon the ragtime
jockey
Never mind your cold, don't stop to cough
They're
off!
[chorus:]
Go, go, go, go
I've got a bet upon you
Go, go, go,
go
I'm betting heavy on you, Pop
Giddy-up, giddy-up, giddy-up
Like I know you
can
Run, run, run, run
And leave the rest behind you
Run, run, run, run
Don't
ever let 'em find you
I'll bet a swag on the ragtime jockey man
[2nd
verse:]
Hear the people yell
"Someone surely fell!"
"Did I hear you say it was the
ragtime jockey?
Sure enough, you're right
See me turning white
All my money is
gone!"
"No, it isn't boss!
See, he's on his hoss
He was only kidding all the other
jockeys
He's just playing with them like a toy
Good boy |
