Yankee Doodle Dandy was written by the British to mock the colonists who they saw as inferior. They sang it to call Patriots weak, gay (yes), fools, and never up to snuff with the British.
As the Continental Army won battles through the 1770's, they adopted Yankee Doodle Dandy as a fight song. From Bunker Hill to Saratoga, as American Patriots won battles more handily, they sang louder and more passionately as the British retreated listening to [their] own symbolism turned against them.
Fuck around and find out.

American Patriots even turned the once disrespectful name, "Yankee" into a proud wearing, respectable badge if honor. lt was originally meant as a slam against the Dutch immigrants, settling in New York!
"Yankee derives from the expression Jan Kaas, literally "John Cheese." This supposedly was a derogatory nickname bestowed on the Dutch by the Germans and the Flemish in the 1600s."
