"Tippecanoe and Tyler Too", originally published as "Tip and Ty", was an influential campaign song of the Whig Party's colorful Log Cabin Campaign in the 1840 presidential election. Its lyrics praised Whig candidates William Henry Harrison (the "hero of Tippecanoe") and John Tyler, while denigrating incumbent Democrat Martin Van Buren.
