BEAR AWAY, YANKEE (2)

Who no been off, no come a bay
Bear away Yankee, bear away
Who no been off, no come a bay
Oh, bear away Yankee, bear away.
Oh,

If you want, deliver your harpoon, boy
Oh bear away, Yankee, bear away
Oh,
Yankee Doodle Dandy boy.
Oh bear away Yankee, bear away.


NOTE: chorus and solo overlap. odd typography hopes to indu\icate where.


Oh If you want the gun so hardful, boy
Oh, the gun on the blank, so len' us a hand.

Bear away we go
Bear away to Baltimore.

Hey, away we go
Who no been off np come a bay

Oh, if you want, deliver your harpoon, boy
Oh Yankee Doodle Dandy oh

Hey, stroke man an' le' we go
Bear away to Baltimore.
