Horsie, horsie, don't you stop,
Just let your feet go clippety clop;

And the wheels go round;
Giddyup, you're homeward bound!

I am sure there was more than 1 verse to the Horsie Horsie song?

By Lynne in Dover, Kent on 7 July 2009

there is it's Farmer Grey's got a one horse shay He takes to town on market day Coming home when the lights are low He sings this song as away they go. Chorus: Horsey, Horsey don't you stop Just let your feet go clipity clop Your tail goes swish and the wheels go round Giddy up we're homeward bound. Horsey horsey on your way We've done the journey many a day Your tail goes swish and the wheels go round Giddy up we're homeward bound. We ain't in a hustle, we ain't in a bustle Don't go tearing up the road We ain't in a hurry, we ain't in a flurry And we ain't got a very heavy load Chorus Going home when they get half way They call a halt at the Load of Hay He has just one, then he has one more And you'll hear him sing after three or four You don't need the whip no goodness knows You don't need the whip so I'll take a little doze Horsey horsey on your way We've done the journey many a day your tail goes swish and the wheels go round Giddy up we're homeward bound. Chorus

Here is how I learned this song: Horsey Horsey on your way, we'll be together for many a day So let your tail go SWISH as the wheels go round Giddy-UP! We're homeward bound. I like to ride the horse and buggy I like to travel through the town I like to hear old Dobbin's "clip-clop" I like to see the wheels go round. Horsey, horsey, don't you stop! Just let your feet go "clippity-clop" And let your tail go Swish! as the wheels go 'round Giddy-UP, we're homeward bound. We learned it years ago in my son's Development Preschool at University of WA (Seattle, WA, USA) I use it now as a song to engage with fragile folk who have Alzheimers/Dementia, they love it. Wish I could find some coconut shells to have them click together to the rhythm of the song! Would be perfect!
