Horsey, horsey is a comedy song written in 1937 by Paddy Roberts, Elton Box, Desmond Cox and Ralph Butler and which was made popular for Jack Jackson, Billy Cotton and Henry Hall.[1]

Original lyrics:

[Verse 1]

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 your wheels go round,

Giddy up, we're homeward bound.

Horsey horsey on your way

We’ve got a journey of many a day

Your tail goes swish and your 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

so

Horsey horsey on your way

We’ve got a journey of many a day

Your tail goes swish and your wheels go round,

Giddy up, we're homeward bound.

[Verse 2]

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 singing after three or four.

[Chorus]

Horsey, horsey don't you stop

Just let your feet go clipity clop,

Your tail goes swish and your wheels go round,

Giddy up, we're homeward bound.

Horsey horsey on your way

We’ve got a journey of many a day

Your tail goes swish and your 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

so

Horsey horsey on your way

We’ve got a journey of many a day

Your tail goes swish and your wheels go round,

Giddy up, we're homeward bound.

You don't need the whip now goodness knows

You don't need the reins so I'll take a little doze

Horsey horsey on your way

We’ve got a journey of many a day

Your tail goes swish and your wheels go round,

Giddy up, we're homeward bound.

The chorus is mostly sung as a round and the verses not sung.

The chorus of the song was sung by Ruth Madoc (as Gladys Pugh) in an episode of the BBC TV situation comedy, Hi-de-Hi! ('The Pay Off', 1982), set in a holiday camp in the late 1950s.
