1 ‘Yankee Doodle’
«Янки Дудл», популярная американская песня, появившаяся в XVIII в. Во время Войны за независимость песня сначала появилась у англичан, высмеивающих простофиль-американцев, затем песню подхватили сами американцы, и с тех пор она стала выражением американского патриотизма. С 1978 — официальная песня штата Коннектикут, утверждённая легислатурой штата. Наиболее распространённый вариант первого куплета:Father and I went down to camp
Along with Captain Goodin’
And there we saw the men and boys
As thick as hasty puddin’.
Chorus:
Yankee Doodle, keep it up,
Yankee Doodle dandy;
Mind the music and the step,
And with the girls be handy!
