It was said earlier that Fess Parker may have sung this song for the movie. I just want to clarify that, yes, it was, indeed, his voice. However, I am not aware that it was sung in the movie cited (although it may have been and if so, I don't know by whom). I think you'll find that it was sung in the movie, "Davy Crockett - King Of The Wild Frontier" (1955,Disney).

I believe the original Disney 45rpm release of the "Ballad of Davy Crockett" carried this song on the flip side.
