Keep them bogeys moving, Rawhide.
Keep them dogies moving, Rawhide.
Keep them boogies movin'
Keep them dogies movin'
Keep them doggies movin'.
Keep them dogies moving.
Allan Mustard adds: "Found on Lyrics on Demand website. As American society has become more urban, rurally rooted words are being forgotten and misheard. A 'dogie' ('dough-gutted' calf) is an orphan calf. 'Dogie' came to be used by drovers as slang for any immature bovine."
Keep them dogies rolling along.
Keep them dogies moving, Rawhide.
Keep them doughboys rolling, roll on!
Keep them dogies moving, Rawhide.

My tutor will be late
My true love will be waitin'
My two hearts will be late
My true love will be waitin'

Though the streams are swollen
Keep them cameras rolling, I-5
Through rain and wind and weather
She rolling, rolling, rolling
Though the streams are swollen
Keep them doggies rolling, rawhide
