Father and I went down to camp, Along with Captain Goodwin,
And there we saw the men and boys, As thick as hasty pudding;
Chorus:
Yankee Doodle keep it up, Yankee Doodle Dandy,
Mind the music and the step, And with the girls be handy.
And there was Gen'ral Washington, Upon a snow white Charger,
He looked as big as all out doors, Some thought he was was much larger.
Chorus
The flaming ribbons in his hat, They look'd so taring fine ah,
I wanted pockily to get, To give to my Jemimah.
Chorus
And there was Col'nel Putnam too, Drest in his regimentals,
I guess as how the British King, Can't whip our Continentals
Chorus
And there we seed a swampin’ gun, Big as a log of maple,
They tied it to a wooden cart, A load for Father's cattle.
Chorus
And ev'ry time they fir'd it off, It took a horn of powder,
It made a noise like Father's gun, Only a nation louder.
Chorus
I went as near to it myself, As any body dare go,
And Father went as near again, I thought he dar'nt do so.
Chorus
Cousin Simon grew so bold, I thought he would have cock'd it;
It scar'd me so I shriek'd it off, And hung by father's pocket.
Chorus
And there I see a pumpkin shell, As big as mother's bason,
And every time they touch'd it off, They scamper'd like the nation.
Chorus
And there I see'd a little keg, All bound around with leather,
They beat it with two little sticks, To call the men together.
Chorus
And there they fif'd away like fun, And play'd on cornstalk fiddles,
And some had ribbins round their hats, And some around their middles.
Chorus
But I can't tell you half I see'd, They kept up such a smother,
I took my hat off, made a bow, And scamper'd home to Mother.
