Remember The Alamo lyrics

A hundred and eighty were challenged by Travis to die

By the line that he drew with his sword when the battle

was nigh

The man who fight 'til the death cross over

But him who would live better fly

And over his line went a hundred and seventy-nine

Chorus:

Hi! Up! Santy Anno, we're killin' your soldiers below

That men wherever they go

Will remember the Alamo

Old Bowie lay dyin', his powder was ready and dry

And young Davy Crockett was singin' and laughin'

With gallantry fierce in his eye

For God and for freedom, a man more than willin' to die

Chorus

They sent a young scout to the battlements, bloody and

loud

The words of farewell in the letters he carried were

proud

With the words of farewell from a garrison gallant and

proud

"Grieve not, little darlin', my dyin'

If Texas is sovereign and free

We'll never surrender and ever will liberty be"
