Yankee Doodle

May 7, 2015 by ajpassey Leave a Comment

Yankee Doodle

Yankee Doodle went to town
A-riding on a pony
He stuck a feather in his hat
And called it macaroni

Chorus:
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.

Chorus

And there was Captain Washington
Upon his strapping stallion.
A-giving orders to his men;
I guess there was a million.

Chorus

Variations Sung to Yankee Doodle:

  • A Box of Gadgets
  • Applesauce
