Текст песни Billie Holiday — Yankee Doodle Never Went to Town
Yankee doodle never went to town
I just discovered the story was phony
Let me give you all the real low-down
He didn't even own a pony
He was really very short and fat
While in the story so skinny and moany
And so hungry that he ate his hat
And called the felt macaroni
Underneath the chestnut tree
He and the blacksmith would sip that tea
Then he'd bring out his uniform down
That's how he went to town
Yankee doodle tried to leave one day
Took his belongings and mounted his saddle
But he never got it on his way
Cause he didn't have a pony
And the fairy tale is phony
How could yankee doodle go to town?
I just discovered the story was phony
Let me give you all the real low-down
He didn't even own a pony
He was really very short and fat
While in the story so skinny and moany
And so hungry that he ate his hat
And called the felt macaroni
Underneath the chestnut tree
He and the blacksmith would sip that tea
Then he'd bring out his uniform down
That's how he went to town
Yankee doodle tried to leave one day
Took his belongings and mounted his saddle
But he never got it on his way
Cause he didn't have a pony
And the fairy tale is phony
How could yankee doodle go to town?

Краткое описание
Текст песни Billie Holiday — Yankee Doodle Never Went to Town рассказывает нам о настоящей истории Янки Дудла. Певица сообщает, что легенда о том, как он приехал в город на пони, – фальшивая. Оказывается, у него вовсе не было лошади, в то время как он сам был коротышкой и жиробасом. В дальнейшем песня смешно и иронично описывает, как он пытался выехать из города, но ему не удалось это сделать, так как он не имел транспорта. Текст песни Billie Holiday — Yankee Doodle Never Went to Town является достаточно забавным, и он пропитан юмором и игривостью. Песня напоминает нам, что не всегда можно верить в истории, ведь за ними могут скрываться фальшивые легенды..
