Johnny Freedom ("Freedomland") - Johnny Horton

JOHNNY FREEDOM

When our country was a baby and the Redcoats had their way

Is was he who had a party tossin tea in Boston Bay

It was he who braved the winter in the days of Valley Forge

Fightinside by side together with a fella name of George

Johnny Freedom, Johnny Freedom

You can meet him on each page of history

Hes the spirit of a bear cub

Our countrys pride and joy

Hats off to Johnny Freedom, Johnny Freedom

That’s our boy

When our country started growin and the wagons headed West

When our country called for pioneers his name led all the rest

What a figure in his raw hide coat and hat made of raccoon

Wonder what there was about him made you think of Danl Boone

Johnny Freedom, Johnny Freedom

You can meet him on each page of history

Hes the spirit of a bear cub

Our countrys pride and joy

Hats off to Johnny Freedom, Johnny Freedom

That’s our boy

If we need a mess of thinkin he’s the Lincoln of the day

If were fixin fer a tussle it’s his muscle all the way

If we need a handsome fella so the ladies hearts can throb

There’s a Yankee Doodle Dandy always handy for the job

You can meet him on each page of history

Hes the spirit of a bear cub

Our countrys pride and joy

Hats off to Johnny Freedom, Johnny Freedom
