REQ ID/LYRICS: Get up old dobbin

[a***@netscape.net]

I remember singing that song in grade school. The words we sang were:

Giddap, old Dobbin, we're going to town
Let's get those wheels a-turning around
Let's get those wheels a-turning around
There's miles to go before sundown.

I like to drive my horse and buggy
When I go traveling to the town.
I like to hear old Dobbin's clip-clop
I like to feel the wheels go 'round

Clip-clop, clip-clop, clip-clip-clop, Whoa!

Get up old Dobbin, the shopping is done
The buggy is loaded, get up lazy one.
Let's get those wheels a-turning around
We've got to get home before sundown.

I like to drive my horse and buggy
When I go traveling to the town.
I like to hear old Dobbin's clip-clop
I like to feel the wheels go 'round

Clip-clop, clip-clop, clip-clip-clop, Whoa!

The music teacher used to give two people in the class pairs of coconut-halves to clack together in rhythm, and it sounded like a horse's hoofbeats on the pavement.
