<pre>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, kill him a bear 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 and peace was in store | |||
And while he was handling this risky chore, made himself a legend forevermore | |||
Davy, Davy Crockett, the man who don't know fear! | |||
He went off to Congress and served a spell, fixing up the Government and laws as well | |||
Took over Washington so we heard tell, and patched up the crack in the Liberty Bell | |||
Davy, Davy Crockett, seeing his duty clear! | |||
When he come home his politicking done, the western march had just begun | |||
So he packed his gear and his trusty gun, and lit out grinning to follow the sun | |||
Davy, Davy Crockett, leading the pioneer! | |||
Davy, Davy Crockett, leading the pioneer!</pre> | |||
