Born on a mountain 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 thru the Injun war

'Till the Creeks was whipped and the peace was in store

And while he was a'handlin' this risky chore

Made hisself a legend forever more



Davy, Davy Crockett, the man who don't know fear



When he lost his love, his grief was gall

In his heart, he wanted to leave it all

And lose hisself in the forest tall

But he answered, instead, his country's call



Davy, Davy Crockett, the choice of the whole 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 a crack in the Liberty Bell



Davy, Davy Crockett, seein' his duty clear



When he came home, his politickin' done

Why, the big western march had just begun

So he packed his gear and his trusty gun

And lit out a'grinnin' to follow the sun



Davy, Davy Crockett, leadin' the pioneer



His land is the biggest, his land is the best

From grassy plaines to the mountain crest

He's ahead of us all and meetin' the test

And a'follern' his legend right into the west



Davy, Davy Crockett, king of the wild frontier
