Remember The Alamo

(альбом: At Large - 1959)

A hundred and eighty were challenged by Travis to die
A line that he drew with his sword when the battle was nigh
"The man who would fight to the death cross over but he who that would live better fly"
And over the line stepped a hundred and seventy-nine

Hi! Up! Santa Anna, we're killing your soldiers below, so the rest of Texas will know and remember the Alamo!

Jim Bowie lay dying, his powder was ready and dry
From flat on his back, Bowie killed him a few in reply
And young Davy Crockett was smiling and laughing
The challenge was fierce in his eye
For Texas and freedom, a man more than willing to die

Hi! Up! Santa Anna, we're killing your soldiers below, so the rest of Texas will know and remember the Alamo!

A courier sent to the battlements, bloody and loud
With words of fare well in the letters he carried were proud
"Grieve not, little darling, my dying if Texas is sovereign and free
We'll never surrender and ever will liberty be!"

Hi! Up! Santa Anna, we're killing your soldiers below, so the rest of Texas will know and remember the Alamo!

Remember the Alamo! Remember the Alamo! Remember the Alamo!
