Lyrics and Activity Notes
Yankee Doodle went to town, a riding on a pony
Stuck a feather in his cap 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 Goodin
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
There was
Captain Washington upon a slapping stallion
And all the men and
boys around, 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
