Yankee Doodle went to town
Riding on a pony
Stuck a feather in his hat
And called it macaroni
Yankee 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
Yankee Doodle, keep it up
Yankee Doodle dandy
Mind the music and the step
And with the girls be handy!
There was Captain Washington
Upon a slopping stadium
Giving orders to his men
I guess there was a thousand
Yankee Doodle, keep it up
Yankee Doodle dandy
Mind the music and the step
And with the girls be handy!
The troopers took my gallop up and fly right in our faces
It scared me almost half to death to see them run such races
It scared me so I hooked it off, no stop as I remember
I turned around till I got home locked up in mother's chambers
Yankee Doodle went to town
Riding on a pony
Stuck a feather in his hat
And called it macaroni
