Words and Music by George M. Cohan (1905) I'm the kid that's all the candy, I'm a Yankee Doodle Dandy I'm glad I am! So's Uncle Sam! I'm a real live Yankee Doodle, Made my name and fame and boodle, Just like Mister Doodle did by riding on a pony I love to listen to the Dixie Strain, I long to see the girl I left behind me; And that ain't a josh, she's a Yankee, by gosh! Oh, say can you see... Anything about a Yankee that's a phoney? I'm a Yankee Doodle Dandy! A Yankee Doodle Do or Die! A real live nephew of my Uncle Sam's Born on the Fourth of July! I've got a Yankee Doodle Sweetheart She's my Yankee Doodle Joy Yankee Doodle came to London Just to ride the ponies, I am a Yankee Doodle Boy! I'm a Yankee Doodle Dandy! A Yankee Doodle Do or Die! A real live nephew of my Uncle Sam's Born on the Fourth of July! I've got a Yankee Doodle Sweetheart She's my Yankee Doodle Joy Yankee Doodle came to London Just to ride the ponies, I am that Yankee Doodle Boy! |
