yankee doodle - robert shaw chorale lyrics
yankee doodle went to town
a-riding on a pony
he stuck a feather in his hat
and called it macaroni
father and i went down to camp
along with captain gooden
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
and there they’d fife 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
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
we saw a little barrel, too
the heads were made of leather
they knocked upon it with little clubs
and called the folks together
yankee doodle, keep it up
yankee doodle dandy
mind the music and the step
and with the girls be handy
and then we saw a swamping gun
large as a log of maple
upon a deuced little cart
a load for 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 shoot it off
it takes a h-rn of powder
it makes 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
