Here's George M. Cohan's famous "Yankee Doodle Dandy," played by your Yankee Doodical Knights.

Let us keep the U.S.A. the heart of all the world
And let us keep our patriot flag forever more unfurled

I'm a Yankee Doodle Dandy,
A Yankee Doodle do or die.
A real live nephew of my unlce Sam,
Born on the 4th of July.
I've got a yankee doodle sweetheart,
she's my Yankee Doodle joy.
Yankee doodle went to London,
just to ride the ponies.
I am a Yankee Doodle Boy.

Hey there, Frankie Carle, start to noodle
You're a Connecticut Yankee Doodle

Yankee Doodle Dandy Kid
Weather, fair or stormy day
We will sing our country's praise

Yankee Doodle Dandy Kid
Whether fair or stormy weather
We will always stick together

Yankee Doodle Dandy kid
Keep our hearts forever humble
While our cannons roar and rumble

Liberty and justice for us
Let us sing a rousing chorus

I'm a Yankee Doodle Dandy kid
