"Gwine to Run All Night, or De Camptown Races" (popularly known as "Camptown Races") is a minstrel song by Stephen Foster (1826–1864). (Play) It was published by F. D. Benteen of Baltimore, Maryland, in February 1850. Benteen published another edition in 1852 with guitar accompaniment under the title, "The Celebrated Ethiopian Song/Camptown Races".
Richard Jackson writes,
In The Americana Song Reader, William Emmett Studwell writes that the song was introduced by the Christy Minstrels, and noting that "[Foster's] nonsense lyrics are much of the charm of this bouncy and enduring bit of Americana ... [The song] was a big hit with minstrel troupes throughout the country." Foster's music was used for derivatives that include "Sacramento", "A Capital Ship" (1875) and a pro-Lincoln parody introduced during the 1860 presidential campaign.

Camptown Races
"Camptown Races" sometimes referred to as "Camptown Ladies" is a comic song written by Stephen Foster (!826-1864) and published in 1850 in Foster's Plantation Melodies. Stephen Foster is known as the father of American music and was the pre-eminent songwriter in the United States of the 19th century.
The Camptown of Foster's own experience was in Pennsylvania, but a "camptown," or tent city was a temporary workingmen's accomodation familiar in many parts of the United States, especially along the rapidly expanding railroad network. The rag-tag mix of horses that are racing, and the disorder of the racing conditions at the ramshackle camptown track provide fun, with the unspoken undercurrent of superiority among the entertained hearers.
