The Ballad Of Davy Crockett

The Ballad Of Davy Crockett - Bill Hayes

Written by：Blacburn/Bruns

Born on a mountain top in tennessee

Greenest state in the land of the free

Raised in the woods so he knew ev'ry tree

Kilt him a be'are when he was only three

Davy davy crockett king of the wild frontier

In eighteen thirteen the creeks uprose

Addin' redskin arrows to the country's woes

Now injun fightin' is somethin' he knows

So he shoulders his rifle an' off he goes

Davy davy crockett the man who don't know fear

Off through the woods he's a marchin' along

Makin' up yarns an' a singin' a song

Itchin' fer fightin' an' rightin' a wrong

He's ringy as a be'are an' twict as strong

Davy davy crockett the buckskin buccaneer

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 king of the wild frontier

When he come home his politickin' done

The western march had just begun

So he packed his gear an' his trusty gun

An' lit out grinnin' to follow the sun

Davy davy crockett leadin' the pioneer

He heard of houston an' austin so

To the texas plains he jest had to go

Where freedom was fightin' another foe

An' they needed him at the alamo

Davy davy crockett the man who don't know fear

His land is biggest an' his land is best

From grassy plains to the mountain crest

He's ahead of us all meetin' the test

Followin' his legend into the west

Davy davy crockett king of the wild frontier
