    Modern
    Yankee Doodle Boy

    George M. Cohan

    I'm the kid that's all the candy,
    I'm a Yankee Doodle Dandy,
    I'm glad I am,
    So's Uncle Sam!

    I'm a real live Yankee Doodle,
    Made my name and fame and boodle,
    Just like Mister Doodle did, By riding on a pony.

    I love to listen to the Dixie strain,
    I long to see the girl I left behind me;
    And that ain't a josh,
    She's a Yankee, by gosh!

    Oh, say can you see,
    Anything about a Yankee that is phoney?

    I'm a Yankee Doodle Dandy,
    A Yankee Doodle, do or die;
    A real live nephew of my Uncle Sam's,
    Born on the Fourth of July.

    I've got a Yankee Doodle sweetheart,
    She's my Yankee Doodle joy.

    Yankee Doodle came to London,
    Just to ride the ponies,
    I am the Yankee Doodle Boy.

    Father's name was Hezikiah,
    Mother's name was Ann Maria,
    Yanks through and through,
    Red, White and Blue!

    Father was so Yankee-hearted,
    When the Spanish war was started,
    He slipped on his uniform
    And hopped upon a pony.

    My mother's mother was a Yankee true,
    My father's father was a Yankee, too,
    And that's going some,
    For the Yankees, by gum!

    Oh, say can you see,
    Anything about my pedigree that's phoney?

    I'm a Yankee Doodle Dandy,
    A Yankee Doodle, do or die;
    A real live nephew of my Uncle Sam's,
    Born on the Fourth of July.

    I've got a Yankee Doodle sweetheart,
    She's my Yankee Doodle joy.

    Yankee Doodle came to London,
    Just to ride the ponies,
    I am the Yankee Doodle Boy.
