The Alamo Lyrics - Donovan Leitch

880 were challenged by Travis to die 

By a line that he drew with his sword as the battle drew nigh 

A man that crossed over the line was for glory 

And he that was left better fly 

And over the line crossed 179 

Hey Up Santa Anna, they're killing your soldiers below 

So the rest of Texas will know 

And remember the Alamo 

Jim Bowie lay dying, the blood and the sweat in his eyes 

But his knife at the ready to take him a few in reply 

Young Davy Crockett lay laughing and dying 

The blood and the sweat in his eyes 

For Texas and freedom a man was more willing to die 

Hey Up Santa Anna, they're killing your soldiers below 

So the rest of Texas will know 

And remember the Alamo 

A courier came to a battle once bloody and loud 

And found only skin and bones where he once left a crowd 

Fear not little darling of dying 

If this world be sovereign and free 

For we'll fight to the last for as long as liberty be 

Hey Up Santa Anna, they're killing your soldiers below 

So the rest of Texas will know 

And remember the Alamo
