Yankee Poodle
Yankee Doodle bought a poodle
But it was a donkey
Went back to the pet shop
And said this ’ere dog is wonky
Fetch the donkey from my car
Get a poodle handy
That’s no poodle in my car
You’ve had too much Brandy
The pet shop owner said don’t come here
Talking tough and spunky
If you think that dog’s an ass
Then you must be a junkie
Fetch the donkey from my car
Get a poodle handy
That’s no poodle in my car
You’ve had too much Brandy
Yankee Doodle said is this your
Customer relations
The pet shop owner said
I’m sorry, we don’t sell alsatians
Fetch the donkey from my car
Get a poodle handy
That’s no poodle in my car
You’ve had too much Brandy
Yankee Doodle said you're deaf
Your hearing aid is broken
And you’re half blind so you can’t
Lip read any word I’ve spoken
Fetch the donkey from my car
Get a poodle handy
That’s no poodle in my car
You’ve had too much Brandy
The pet shop owner said, but sir
My donkeys don’t do rushing
Yankee Doodle frowned, I said
A dog that won’t need brushing
Fetch the donkey from my car
Get a poodle handy
That’s no poodle in my car
You’ve had too much Brandy
