Yankee Doodle came to town
A-ridin' on a pony
Stuck a feather in his cap
And called it macaroni
Father and I went down to camp
Along with Captain Goodwood
And there we saw the men and boys
As thick as hasty puddin'
Yankee Doodle keep it up
Yankee Doodle dandy
Mind the music and the step
And with the girls be handy
And there they trive away like fun
And play on cornstalk fiddles
And some had ribbons red as blood
All bound around their middles
Yankee Doodle keep it up
Yankee Doodle dandy
Mind the music and the step
And with the girls be handy
And there was Captain Washington
Upon a slapping stallion
A-giving orders to his men
(I guess there was a million)
Yankee Doodle keep it up
Yankee Doodle dandy
Mind the music and the step
And with the girls be handy
And there I see a little keg
Its head was made of leather
They knocked upon with little sticks
To call the men together
Yankee Doodle keep it up
Yankee Doodle dandy
Mind the music and the step
And with the girls be handy
And there they had a swabbin' gun
As big as a log of maple
On a mighty little cart
A-load of father's cattle
Yankee Doodle keep it up
Yankee Doodle dandy
Mind the music and the step
And with the girls be handy
And every time they fired it off
It took a horn of powder
It made a noise like father's gun
Only a nation louder
Yankee Doodle keep it up
Yankee Doodle dandy
Mind the music and the step
And with the girls be handy
It scared me so I hooked it off
Nor stopped, as I remember
Nor turned about till I got home
Locked up in mother's chamber
Yankee Doodle keep it up
Yankee Doodle dandy
Mind the music and the step
And with the girls be handy
