Ballad of Davey Crockett [From Davey Crockett (1954)]
Born on a mountain top in Tennessee
greenest state in the land of the free
Raised in the woods so's he knew every tree
kilt him a b'ar when he was only three
Davy, Davy Crockett, king of the wild frontier
Fought single-handed through the Injun War
till the Creeks was whipped an' peace was in store
An' while he was handlin' this risky chore
made hisself a legend for evermore
Davy, Davy Crockett, the man who don't know fear
He went off to Congress an' served a spell, fixin'
up the Govern'ments an' laws as well
Took over Washin'ton so we heered tell
an' patched up the crack in the Liberty Bell
Davy, Davy Crockett, seein' his duty clear
When he come home his politickin' was done
the western march had just begun
So he packed his gear an' his trusty gun
an' lit out a-grinnin' to follow the sun
Davy, Davy Crockett, leadin' the pioneer
