Boxcar Willie - Yankee Doodle текст песни

Текст песни Yankee Doodle - Boxcar Willie



Yankee Doodle went to town,
A-riding on a pony,
And called it macaroni.
Yankee Doodle, keep it up,
Yankee Doodle dandy,
Mind the music and the step,
And with the girls be handy.
Fath'r and I went down to camp,
Along with Captain Gooding,
And there we saw the men and boys
As thick as hasty pudding.
Yankee Doodle-doodle-doo,
Yankee Doodle dandy,
All the lassies are so smart
And sweet as sugar candy.
And there we saw a thousand men
As rich as Squire David,
And what they wasted every day,
I wish it could be saved.
And here was Captain Washington
Upon a slapping stallion,
A-giving orders to his men,
I guess there was a million.
They looked so 'tarnal fine, ah!
I wanted pokily to get
To give to my Jemima.
And there I see a swamping gun
Large as a log of maple,
Upon a deuced little cart,
A load for father's cattle.
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 barrel too,
The heads were made of leather;
They knocked on it with little clubs
And called the folks together.
And Cap'n Davis had a gun,
He kinda clap't his hand on't
And stuck a crooked stabbing iron
Upon the little end of't.
Yankee Doodle is a tune
That comes in mighty handy;
The enemy all runs away
At Yankee Doodle Dandy.
Cousin Simon grew so bold,
I thought he would have cocked it;
It scared me so I streaked it off
And hung by father's pocket.
And there I see a pumpkin shell
As big as mother's basin,
And every time they touched it off
They scampered like the nation.
The troopers, too, would gallop up
And fire right in our faces;
It scared me almost to death
To see them run such races.
I see another snarl of men
A-digging graves they told me,
So 'tarnal long, so 'tarnal deep,
They 'tended they should hold me.
But I can't tell half I see
They kept up such a smother;
So I took my hat off, made a bow,
And scampered home to mother.
