SOL DO SOL
Born on a mountain top in Tennessee,
SOL LA RE
Greenest state in the land of the free.
SOL DO LAm
Raised in the woods so he knew every tree
RE7 SOL
Killed him a "bar" when he was only three.
SOL DO SOL RE RE7 SOL
Davey, Davey Crockett, king of the wild frontier.
SOL DO SOL
Fought single handed through the Indian war,
SOL LA RE
Till' the Creeks were whipped and peace was in store,
SOL DO LAm
While he was handling this risky chore,
RE7 SOL
made himself a legend forever more.
SOL DO SOL RE RE7 SOL
Davey, Davey Crockett, the man who don't know fear.
(rest of lyrics, same chord pattern)
He went off to Congress and served a spell,
fixin' up the government and laws as well,
he took over Washington so I hear tell
and patched up the crack in the Liberty bell.
Davey, Davey Crockett, seeing his duty clear.
When he come home, his politickin' done,
why the westward march had just begun,
so he packed his gear and his trusty gun
and lit out a grinnin' to follow the sun.
Davey, Davey Crockett, a leadin' a pioneer.
He heard of Houston and Austin and so,
to the Texas plains he just had to go,
their freedom was fightin' another foe
and they needed him at the Alamo!
Davey, Davey Crockett, king of the wild frontier...
