The Kingston Trio

The Kingston Trio is an American folk and pop music group that helped launch the folk revival of the late 1950s to late 1960s. The group started as a San Francisco Bay Area nightclub act with an original lineup of Dave Guard, Bob Shane, and Nick Reynolds. It rose to international popularity, fueled by unprecedented sales of 33⅓ rpm long-playing record albums (LPs), and helped to alter the direction of popular music in the U.S. more »

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 would fight to the death cross over but him that would live better fly,"
And over his line went a hundred-and-seventy-nine.

[Chorus]
Hi! Santa Anna, we're killing your soldiers below, So the rest of Texas will know
And remember the Alamo!

Though Bowie lay dyin', his powder was ready and dry.
From flat on his back, Bowie killed him a few in reply,
And young Davy Crockett was smilin' and laughin', the challenge was fierce in his eye.
For Texas and freedom, a man more than willin' to die.

[Chorus]

A courier sent to the battlements, bloody and loud,
With words of farewell in the letters he carried were proud:
"Grieve not, little darlin', my dyin' if Texas is sovereign and free,
We'll never surrender and ever will liberty be!"

[Chorus]

Remember the Alamo!
Remember the Alamo!
Remember the Alamo!
