King of the Wild Frontier...

Farewell, Dan'l
Mingo says goodye...
Know you wouldn't have wanted this
but i have to sit and cry
You gave me the mountains
and the woods,
clear running streams
and air that was fresh and good
You were the father that always understood
and smiled after the lesson learned
You lead but you did not command
you took us all gently in those massive hands
and as Davey Crockett, you made that final stand
to die for what you believed in
Goodbye, Fess, i must confess
that i have loved you above all the rest
that you are a part of my life
my friends don't have to guess
To have know you
i truly do feel blessed
You changed so many lives
i will keep your flame alive
i can say with pride
that i still love you, Daniel Boone...
