Born on a mountain top in Tennessee
Greenest state in the Land of the Free
Raised in the woods so he knew every tree
He killed himself a bear when he was only three
Davy Davy Crockett
King of the wild frontier
Off through the woods he went marching along
Making up yarns and a singing a song
Itching for fighting always righting a wrong
He was rangy as a bear and twice as strong
Fought single-handed through the Indian War
Till the tribes went west and peace was in store
The rest of his life he took the stand
That justice was due the redskin man
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
He heard of Houston and Austin and so
To the Texas plains he just had to go
Where the land was free and there was room to grow
And he fought and died at the Alamo
Davy's land is the biggest Davy's land is best
From grassy plains to the mountain crest
He's ahead of us all meeting the test
Following his legend into the West
