Macaroni

There was this Yankee Doodle, who had a special hat,
By donning plumage he could eat! Now can you fancy that?
Or was it that he decorated it for it was rather plain?
I can’t see how he’d otherwise have anything to gain.

He put a feather in it, and called it macaroni.
That makes no sense to call a hat, perhaps he meant his pony?
That can’t be it, of course, it’s from a story line,
About a girl who had a horse, a girl named Caroline.

The horse was white ... no wait a bit, her house was all in White,
And everywhere she went her pony kept her in his sight!
Or was that Mary, who can tell? This tale is not so neat,
I think because of hunger pangs. So tell me, can we eat?
