Davy, Davy Crockett, the king of the wild frontier

Born on a mountain top in Tennessee
The greenest state in the land of the free
Raised in the woods so he knew every tree
And kilt him a bar when he was only three
Davy, Davy Crockett, the king of the wild frontier

He 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
He made himself a legend for evermore
Davy, Davy Crockett, the king of the wild frontier

Oh, when he lost his love his grief was gall
In his heart he wanted to leave it all
And lose himself in the forests 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
Fixing up the Government and laws as well
Took over Washington so we heered tell
And patched up the crack in the Liberty Bell
Davy, Davy Crockett, serving his country well

When he come home his politicking done
While the big western march had just begun
He packed his gear and his trusty gun
And lit out grinning to follow the sun
Davy, Davy Crockett, leading the pioneer

His land is biggest and his land is best
From grassy plains to the mountain crest
He's ahead of us all meeting the test
Following his legend right into the West
Davy, Davy Crockett, the king of the wild frontier
King of the wild frontier
