[Verse 1:]
Daniel Boone was a man,
Yes, a big man.

With an eye like an eagle,
And as tall as a mountain was he.


[Verse 2:]
Daniel Boone was a man,
Yes, a big man.

He was brave, he was fearless,
And as tough as a mighty oak tree.


[Bridge:]
From the coonskin 1 cap,
On the top of old Dan,

To the heel of his rawhide shoe,
The ripin'est, roarin'est, fightin'est man,
The frontier ever knew.


[Verse 3:]
Daniel Boone was a man,

Yes, a big man.
What a boon, what a doer,
What a dream come a-truer was he.
