Testo Yankee Doodle - Boxcar Willie
Testo della canzone Yankee Doodle (Boxcar Willie), tratta dall'album The Greatest Collection Ever Made
Yankee Doodle went to town upon a striped pony
Stuck a feather in his hat and called it macaroni
Yankee Doodle, keep it up, Yankee Doodle dandy
Mind the music and the step and will the girls be handy?
Father and I went down to camp along with Captain Good
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 will the girls be handy?
And there was Captain Washington upon a mighty stallion
A-giving orders to his men, I bet there was a million
Yankee Doodle, keep it up, Yankee Doodle dandy
Mind the music and the step and will the girls be handy?
There I saw a cannon gun, a-load for Father's cattle
And every time they fired it off, you ought to hear it rattle
Yankee Doodle, keep it up, Yankee Doodle dandy
Mind the music and the step and will the girls be handy?
Every time they fired it off, it took a keg of powder
Made a noise like Father's gun, only an inch and louder
Yankee Doodle, keep it up, Yankee Doodle dandy
Mind the music and the step and will the girls be handy?
And then I see a little keg, its head all made of leather
They knocked on it with little sticks to call the troops together
Yankee Doodle, keep it up, Yankee Doodle dandy
Mind the music and the step and will the girls be handy?
The troopers too would gallop off and fire right in our faces
Scared me almost half to death to see them run such races
Yankee Doodle, keep it up, Yankee Doodle dandy
Mind the music and the step and will the girls be handy?
