Colonist turned the joke around at the end of the Revolutionary war. As Britain’s General Cornwallis marched to American lines to surrender to George Washington’s army, the boy drummers played “Yankee Doodle”.

24. Words to “Yankee Doodle” (America’s Music CD – McDougal ) Father and I wend down to camp, Along with Cap’n Goodin’, And there we saw the men and boys As thick as hasty puddin’. And there we see a thousand men, As rich as Sqire David’ And what they wasted ev’ry day, I wish it could be saved. And there I see a swamping gun, Large as a long of maple, Upon a deuced little cart, A load for father’s cattle.

25. And every time they shoot it off, It takes a horn of powder, And makes a noise like father’s gun, Only a nation louder. I see a little barrell too, The heads were made of leather; They knocked upon ‘t with little clubs And called the folks together. And there was Cap’n Washington, And gentle folks about him’ They say he’s grown so ‘tarnal proud, He will not ride without ‘em. Chorus: Yankee Doodle, keep it up, Yankee Doodle dandy, Mind the music and the step, And with the girls by handy.

26. He got him on his meeting clothes Upon a slapping stallion, He set the world along in row, In hundreds and in millions. Chorus: Yankee Doodle, keep it up, Yankee Doodle dandy, Mind the music and the step, And with the girls by handy.
