james cagney - yankee doodle boy lyrics

Loading...

[johnny]
i’m the kid that’s all the candy
i’m a yankee doodle dandy
i’m glad i am

[fans]
so’s uncle sam

[johnny]
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

[fans]
oh, say can you see

[johnny]
anything about a yankee that’s a phony?

[fans]
little johnny jones, the jockey from the u.s.a
[johnny]
will ride the pony yankee doodle english derby day

[fans]
jonesy’s broken records every track and every meet

[johnny]
so yankee doodle’s gonna be the boy they have to beat

[fans]
sportsmen of the british isles who’ve followed his career
have offered johnny anything to keep him over here

[johnny]
but all the money in the bank of england couldn’t pay
enough to keep young johnny jones away from old broadway

[fans]
if you want to take a tip, the surest of sure things

[johnny]
have your houses mortgaged, hock your watches, p+wn your rings

[fans]
and put it all on yankee doodle, johnny jones is up!
[johnny]
i’m gonna give america the english derby cup

[fans]
he’s gonna give america the english derby cup

[johnny]
i’m a yankee doodle dandy
a yankee doodle, do or die
a real live nephew of my uncle sam
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

[fans]
he’s a yankee doodle dandy
a yankee doodle do or die
a real live nephew of his uncle sam
born on the fourth of july
he’s got a yankee doodle sweetheart
she’s his yankee doodle joy
yankee doodle came to london
just to ride the ponies
he is the yankee doodle boy
(dance break)

yankee doodle came to london
just to ride the ponies
he is the yankee doodle boy
