Folk Song Of The Week – Frailing Banjo Lesson: Yankee Doodle
I found this request in my spam folder from June from John in California. It’s a bit late, but here it is: Yankee Doodle as a frailing banjo lesson!
Have fun!
Yankee Doodle
[C]Yankee Doodle went to town a-riding on a [G]pony
[C]Stuck a feather [F]in his hat and [C]called it [G]maca[C]roni.
[F]Yankee Doodle, keep it up. [C]Yankee Doodle dandy
[F]Mind the music and the step and [C]with the [G]girls be [C]handy.
Father and I went down to camp along with Captain Gooding
And there we saw the men and boys as thick as hasty pudding.
There was Captain Washington upon a slapping stallion
A-giving orders to his men I guess there was a million.

Thanks! It’s also a great tune to practice single note strikes and later it’s good to practice double thumbing.

that’s just great, man. seems like a really good tune to practice melody notes in the key of C. definitely will give it a spin.
