They started somethin'
But we're gonna end it
Right in their own back yard!
We're proud of our country
And proud to defend it
So, Yankee Doodle, hit'em hard!
Let's put our shoulders to the wheel
The darn world will get a new deal!
Oh! They started somethin'
But we're gonna end it
Right in their own back yard! Yard!

We're enrollin' ev'ry gal and guy!
Heart! and soul in ev'ry bond we buy!
Keep'em rollin' in! Keep'em flyin'!
Over land and sea and sky

[Lyrics transcribed from the sheet music]
