The Ballad of Davy Crockett (From Walt Disney's "Davy Crockett")

Lyrics

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
