Ballad Of Davy Crockett

Davy Davy Crockett king of the wild frontier

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 bar 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 king of the wild frontier

Now he's lost his love an' his grief was gall

In his heart he wanted to leave it all

An' lose himself in the forests tall

But he answered instead his country's call

Davy Davy Crockett king of the wild frontier

He went off to Congress and served a spell

Fixing up the Government and laws as well

He took over Washington so I hear tell

And patched up the crack in the Liberty Bell

Davy Davy Crockett serving his country well

When he come 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 leading the pioneer

His land is the biggest and his land is best

From grassy plains to the mountain crest

He's ahead of us all meetin' the test

Following his legend in to the West

Davy Davy Crockett king of the wild frontier

King of the wild frontier
