"Daniel Boone" (theme song)
by Vera Matson & Lionel Newman
Daniel Boone was a man. Yes a big man.
With an eye like an eagle and as tall as a mountain was he.
Daniel Boone was a man. Yes a big man.
He was brave he was fearless and as tough as a mighty oak tree
From the coonskin cap on the top of ol Dan to the heel of his rawhide shoe
The rippin’est roarin’est fightin’est man the frontier ever knew.
Daniel Boone was a man. Yes a big man.
And he fought for America to make all Americans free.
What a Boone. What a wonder. What a dream comer truer was he.
