Connecticut State Song (Vocal) Yankee Doodle
The song was a pre-Revolutionary War song originally sung by British military officers to mock the disheveled, disorganized colonial "Yankees". Father and I went down to camp Along with Captain Gooding 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 There was Captain Washington Upon a strapping stallion Giving orders to his men I guess there was a million. CHORUS: Yankee Doodle, keep it up Yankee Doodle dandy Mind the music and the step And with the girls be handy. Yankee Doodle went to town Riding on a pony He stuck a feather in his hat And called it macaroni.
