Letra The Ballad Of Davy Crockett de The Voices Of Walter Schumann original
Davy, Davy Crockett. King of the wild frontier. Davy, Davy Crockett. The buckskin buccaneer. Born on a mountain top in Tennessee Greenest state in the land of the free Raised in the woods so he knew every tree Kilt him a b'ar when he was only three. Davy, Davy Crockett. King of the wild frontier. Davy, Davy Crockett. The buckskin buccaneer. He fought single-handed through the injun war Til the Creeks were whipped and peace was in store And while he was handlin' this risky chore Made himself a legend forevermore. Davy, Davy Crockett. King of the wild frontier. Now he lost his love and his grief was gall In his heart he wanted to leave it all And loose himself in the forest tall But he answered instead his country's call. Davy, Davy Crockett. Beginning his campaign. He went off to Congress to serve a spell Fixin' 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. King of the wild frontier. Davy, Davy Crockett. Seeing his duty clear. When he come home his politicing done The 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. King of the pioneers. He heard of Houston, and Austin and so To the Texas plain he just had to go Where Freedom was fightin' another foe And they needed him at the Alamo. Davy, Davy Crockett. The man who don't know fear. Davy, Davy Crockett. King of the wild frontier.
