“Yankee Doodle“ is a traditional song and nursery rhyme, the early versions of which predate the Seven Years' War and American Revolution. It is often sung patriotically in the United States today. It is the state anthem of Connecticut. The melody is thought to be much older than both the lyrics and the subject, going back to folk songs of Medieval Europe. 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. And there was General 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.
