Farewell to the mountains, whose mazes to me/ More beautiful far than Eden could be, /The home I redeemed from the savage and wild, /The Home I have loved as a father his child, / The wife of my bosom- farewell to ye all./ In the land of the stranger, I rise or I fall. Thats all that I know of the poem by Davy Crockett. In college, I used to play bridge with a direct descendant. I don't know who wrote the music. Davy was much more than a frontiersman. He was elected to Congress. I have seen a letter from him taking a strip of hide off Andrew Jackson and calling him a would-be king and it is not the letter of a poorly educated man. The Davy Crockett King of the Wild Frontier theme song was a piece of tripe.
