The Ballad of Davy Crockett

Born on a mountaintop in Tennessee Greenest state in the Land of the Free Raised in the woods so's he knew every tree He killed him a b'ar when he was only three Davy, Davy Crockett, king of the Wild Frontier Fought single-handed through the Injun war 'Til the Creeks was whipped and the peace was in store While he was handlin' this risky chore Made himself a legend forevermore Davy, Davy Crockett, king of the Wild Frontier He'd give his word and he'd give his hand That his Injun friends could keep their land The rest of his life he took the stand That justice was due every redskin band Davy, Davy Crockett, king of the Wild Frontier He went off to Congress and served a spell Fixin' up the government and laws as well Took over Washington, so I hear tell And patched up the crack in the Liberty Bell Davy, Davy Crockett, king of the Wild Frontier When he came home, his politickin' done The western march had just begun So he packed his gear and his trusty gun And lit out grinnin' to follow the sun Davy, Davy Crockett, king of the Wild Frontier His land is biggest and his land is best From grassy plains to the mountain crest He's ahead of us all and meetin' the test Followin' his legend into the west Davy, Davy Crockett, king of the Wild Frontier Davy, Davy Crockett, king of the Wild Frontier King of the Wild Frontier
