Fess Parker - The Ballad Of Davy Crockett Lyrics

Born on a mountain top in Tennessee
Greenest state in the land of the free
Raised in the woods, so he knew ev'ry 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
'Til the Creeks was whipped and peace was in store
While he was handlin' this risky chore
Made himself a legend for evermore
Davy, Davy Crockett, king of the wild frontier

He give his word and he 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 an' served a spell
Fixin' up the Governments an' laws as well
Took over Washington so we heered tell
An' patched up the crack in the Liberty Bell
Davy, Davy Crockett, king of the wild frontier

When he come home, his politickin' done
The western march had just begun
So he packed his gear an' his trusty gun
An' lit out grinnin' to follow the sun
Davy, Davy Crockett, king of the wild frontier

His land is biggest an' his land is best
From grassy plains to the mountain crest
He's ahead of us all, 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

King of the wild frontier
