Night Herding Song

Night Herding Song
Oh say, little dogies, why don't you lay down?
you've wandered and trampled all over the ground.
lay down, little dogies, lay down.
I have cross-herded, trail-herded, circle-herded too
but to keep you together — that's what i can't do.
my horse is leg-weary, and i'm awful tired
but, if i let you get away, i'm sure to get fired.
bunch up, little dogies, bunch up.
