yankee doodle went to town, riding on a pony
stuck a feather in his cap, and called it macaroni
yankie doodle, keep it up, Yankee Doodle dandy
Mind the music and the step, and with the girls be handy
father and I went down to camp along with captain gooding
And there we saw the men and boys As thick as hasty pudding.
yankie doodle, keep it up
yankie doodle dandy
mind the music and the step
and with the girls be handy
there was Captain Washington
upon his slopping stallion
giving orders to his men
I guess there were a billion
Yankie doodle, keep it up
yankie doodle, dandie
mind the music and the step
and with the girls be handy
yankie doodle went to town
riding on a pony
stuck a feather in his cap
and called it macaroni
yankie doodle, keep it up
yankie doodle, handy
mind the music
and the step and with the girls be handy
