Yankee Doodle revisited

From a book of southern poetry and song.

Oh! say has the star spangled banner become
The flag of the Tory and vile Northern scum?

and

Yankee Doodle had a mind
To whip the Southern Traitors
Because they didn't choose to live
On codfish and potatoes
Yankee doodle doodle doo
Yankee doodle dandy
And so to keep his courage up
He took a  sip of brandy
