LYRICS :1. Dixie whipped old Yankee Doodle :Early in the morning, :So Yankeedom had best look out, :And take a timely warning. ::''Chorus'' :Hurrah! for our Dixie Land! :Hurrah! for our borders! :Southern boys to arms will stand, :And whip the dark marauders! :2. Yankee Doodles soundly slept :Upon their greasy pillows, :While Dixie boys, with muffled oars, :Were gliding o'er the billows. :3. Yankee Doodles, grease your heels, :Make ready to be running, :For Dixie boys are near at hand, :Surpassing you in cunning. :4. Anderson, the gallant brave, :Who broke upon their slumbers, :E'en little girls and boys shall sing :Your name in tuneful numbers. :5. A thousand blessings on your heads, :Our brave, unflinching leaders, :A light you are upon the path :Of all our brave seceders. :6. Wright, on Carolina's coast, :Was e'er a hero bolder? :He seized a Yankee foe, and made :A breastwork of the soldier. :7. Louisiana, bold and brave, :Renowned for Creole beauty, :Your champions will bear in mind :The watchword, grace and booty! :8. Yankee Doodle, fair thee well, :Ere long you'll be forgotten, :While Dixie's notes shall gaily float :Throughout the land of cotton. SEE ALSO |
