Anyone have talent with lyrics? I just noticed that one of
my favorite childhood songs (from the days when Disney
celebrated traditional values) is a natural fit to Governor
Palin. Can anyone help finish the lyrics and either post or
email suggestions (or tell me it's a dumb idea)?
The Ballad of Davy Crockett
Lyrics by Tom Blackburn
Music by George Bruns
Born on a mountain top in Tennessee
The greenest state in the land of the free
Raised in the woods so's he knew ev'ry tree
Kilt him a b'ar when he was only three
Davy, Davy Crockett, king of the wild frontier
Fought single-handed through many a war
Till the enemy was whipped and peace was in store
And while he was handlin' this risky chore
He made himself a legend forever more
Davy, Davy Crockett, the man who knew no fear
He went off to Congress and served a spell
Fixin' up the Government and the laws as well
Took over Washington, so I heard tell
And he patched up the crack in the Liberty Bell
Davy, Davy Crockett, seeing his duty clear
When he came home his politic'ing was done
And 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, leading the pioneer
The Ballad of Sarah Palin
Lyrics by Freepers
Music by George Bruns
Born on a mountain top in Idaho
She moved up North to the land of the snow
Stalkin through the woods 'fore the sky’s aglow
Kilt her a moose, by dinner it’s gumbo
Sarah, Sarah Palin, queen of the wild frontier
....
Might need some polishing, but here goes —
The Ballad of Sarah Palin
Lyrics by Freepers
Music by George Bruns
Born on a mountain top in Idaho
She moved up North to the land of the snow
Stalkin through the woods ‘fore the sky’s aglow
Kilt her a moose, by dinner it’s gumbo
Sarah, Sarah Palin, queen of the wild frontier
Ousted some crook, put a couple in jail
Cleaned up the place, didn’t know how to fail
And the way she handlled this risky chore
Made her a legend from shore to shore
Sarah, Sarah Palin the lady who knows no fear
A call came from Washington to serve a spell
Fixin’ up the Government and the laws as well
She’ll go Washington, so I hear tell
And help with polishing that Liberty Bell
Sarah, Sarah Palin, seeing her duty clear
She’ll serve two terms, Vice President to start
Then two more as President; she’s just that smart
Then she’ll step down, like the lady she be
But she won’t fade away, you just wait and see
Sarah, Sarah Palin, Queen from the Wild Frontier
She’ll go back home, her big part done,
It’ll be time to relax and have some fun
But she’ll be there, you can bet on that
Alert and ready again pick up the bat
Sarah, Sarah Palin our Queen from the Wild Frontier
