DESCRIPTION:
"Gwine to Run All Night, or De Camptown Races" (popularly known as "Camptown Races") is a minstrel song by Stephen Foster.

Foster composed it as a piece for solo voice with group interjections and refrain. Together with "Oh! Susanna", "Camptown Races" is one of the gems of the minstrel era.

In one of the most widely-familiar uses of "Camptown Races" in popular culture, the Looney Tunes and Merrie Melodies cartoon character Foghorn J. Leghorn sings the "Dooh Dah" refrain repeatedly throughout most of the 26 cartoons the character appears in.

Its tune has also been adopted for use in football chants, most notably in England's Two World Wars and One World Cup chant.
