Johnny Freedom Freedom Land by Johnny Horton Lyrics

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

It was he who had a party tossing tea in Boston Bay

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

Fighting side by side together with a fella name of George

Johnny Freedom, Johnny Freedom

You can meet him on each page of history

He's the spirit of America

Our country's pride and joy

Hats off to Johnny Freedom

Johnny Freedom, that's our boy

When our country started growing and the wagons headed west
When our country called for pioneers, his name led all the rest

What a figure in his rawhide coat and hat made of raccoon

Wonder what there was about him made you think of Daniel Boone?

Johnny Freedom, Johnny Freedom

You can meet him on each page of history

He's the spirit of America, our country's pride and joy

Hats off to Johnny Freedom

Johnny Freedom, that's our boy

If we need a mess of thinking, he's the Lincoln of the day

If we're fixing for 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

Johnny Freedom, Johnny Freedom
You can meet him on each page of history

He's the spirit of America, our country's pride and joy

Hats off to Johnny Freedom

Johnny Freedom, that's our boy
