Step 1 : Introduction to the question ""Yankee Doodle" is the official song of which U.S. state?"
...“Yankee Doodle went to town riding on a pony, stuck a feather in his cap and called it macaroni.” These are the first few lines of the classic American ditty “Yankee Doodle,” a tune that almost every American child has sung at some point in their lives. It is often sung patriotically in the United States and is the state anthem of Connecticut. The British troops sang the song to make fun of their stereotype of the American soldier as a Yankee simpleton who thought that he was stylish if he simply stuck a feather in his cap. Eventually, “Yankee Doodle” had turned from being an insult to being a song of national pride.
