The Jim Bridger Story - Johnny Horton[00:00:00]

Once there was a mountain man who couldn't write his name[00:00:05]

Yet he deserves the front row seat in History's Hall of Fame[00:00:10]

He forgot more about the Indians than we will ever know[00:00:15]

He spoke the language of the Sioux the Black Foot and the Crow [00:00:20]

Let's drink to old Jim Bridger yes lift your glasses high[00:00:27]

As long as there's the USA don't let his memory die[00:00:32]

That he was making history never once occured to him[00:00:37]

But I doubt if we'd been here if it weren't for men like Jim [00:00:42]

He spoke with General Custer and said listen Yellow Hair[00:00:51]

The Sioux are the great nation so treat 'em fair and square[00:00:56]

Sit in on their war councils don't laugh away their pride[00:01:01]

But Custer didn't listen at Little Big Horn Custer died [00:01:06]

Let's drink to old Jim Bridger yes lift your glasses high[00:01:11]

As long as there's the USA don't let his memory die[00:01:16]

That he was making history never once occured to him[00:01:21]

But I doubt if we'd been here if it weren't for men like Jim [00:01:26]

There's poems and there's legends that tell of Carson's fame[00:01:34]

Yet compared to Jim Bridger Kit was civilized and tame[00:01:40]

These words are straight from Carson's lips if you place that story by him[00:01:45]

If there's a man who knows this God forsaken land it's Jim [00:01:50]

Let's drink to old Jim Bridger yes lift your glasses high[00:01:56]

As long as there's the USA don't let his memory die[00:02:01]

That he was making history never once occured to him[00:02:06]

But I doubt if we'd been here if it weren't for men like Jim[00:02:11]
