[00:00:54] Yankee doodle never went to town

[00:00:57] I just discovered the story was phony

[00:01:00] Let me give you all the real low down

[00:01:03] He didn't even own a pony

[00:01:06] He was really very short and fat

[00:01:09] While in the story so skinny and moany

[00:01:12] And so hungry that he ate his hat

[00:01:14] And called the feather macaroni

[00:01:18] Underneath the chestnut tree

[00:01:21] He and the blacksmith would sip that tea

[00:01:23] Then he'd bring out his uniform all low down

[00:01:26] That's how he went to town

[00:01:30] Yankee doodle tried to leave one day

[00:01:32] Took his belongings and mounted his saddle

[00:01:35] But he never got it on his way

[00:01:38] 'Cause he didn't have a pony and the fairy tale is phony

[00:01:41] How could yankee doodle go to town
