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 hisself a legend forever more

Davy, Davy Crockett
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 hisself in the forests tall
But he answered instead his country's call

Davy, Davy Crocket
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 hear tell
And patched up the crack in the Liberty Bell

Davy, Davy Crocket
Serving his country well

When he come home, his politicking done
Why the big western march had just begun
He packed up his gear and his trusty gun
And lit out a grinning to follow the sun

Davy, Davy Crocket
Leading a pioneer

His land is biggest and his land is best
From grassy plains to the mountain crests
He's ahead of us all, a meeting the test
And following his legend right into the west

Davy, Davy Crocket
The king of the wild frontier
King of the wild frontier
