I was Davy Crockett. I had a coonskin cap and a rifle. I have a picture 
somewhere with me wearing the cap and holding the rifle.

THE BALLAD OF DAVY CROCKETT

Born on a mountain top in Tennessee, 
Greenest 
state in the land of the free. 
Raised in the woods so's he knew every tree, 
Killed him a bear when he was only three. 
Davy, Davy Crockett King of 
the Wild Frontier. 

He fought single handed through the Injun war, 
Till the Creeks was whipped and peace was restored. 
And while he was 
handling this risky chore, 
Made himself a legend, forevermore. 
Davy, 
Davy Crockett the man who don't know fear. 

When he lost his love, and 
his grief was gall, 
In his heart he wanted to leave it all, 
And lose 
himself in the forest 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 
Fixin' 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 Crockett, seein' his duty clear. (Serving his 
country well) 

When he come home, his politickin' 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, Leadin the Pioneers. 

His land is biggest, and his land is best 
>From grassy plains to the 
mountain crest 
He's ahead of us all in meeting the test 
Followin' his 
legend right into the West 
Davy, Davy Crockett, King of the Wide Frontier 
King of the Wild Frontier
