I assume we’re past Saturday, 5 November 1955 from “Back to the Future” when Marty McFly comes into Hill Valley. By the way, I inherited the Four Aces’ “Mister Sandman”. The 45 still plays.
“He went off to Congress to serve a spell” (no). “Fought single handed thru the injun wars” (no). “Patched up the crack in the Liberty Bell.” (no) Wonder how he’ll word the song for Beethoven.
Well, Beethoven wrote a number of arrangements based on folk songs from different countries, chiefly from Scotland, Ireland, Wales and England. I bet he would have done the same with American folk music, had it ever made its way to his writing desk. However, Davy Crockett and the Alamo would hardly have featured in any of them as the Alamo occurred 11 years after his death.

Wow, I unknowingly predicted it yesterday. Pardon me while I rush down to the liquor store to buy some Powerball tickets.

I think that Scroeder is losing it.

Shroeder forgot that Beethoven’s full name is Ludwig Van Beethoven.

“Davy, Davy Crockett, king of the wild frontierDavy, Davy Crockett, king of the wild frontier”
Whenever I think of that TV theme song, I also think of the one from “Branded”:
“Branded!Scorned as the one who ran.What do you do when you’re branded,And you know you’re a man?”
But what I think about most is how boys at my elementary school changed the lyrics and sang:
“Pregnant!Pregnant in a trash can.What do you do when you’re pregnant,And you know you’re a man?”

Schroeder is branching out in his musical tastes.

I am going to write this on my next history exam, and then claim the AI searched the internet for the real truth, so it must be true.

When Natty Bumppo was young, the western frontier wasn’t far from the Hudson River.
