Rocky Raccoon

Lyrics

Now somewhere in the black mining hills of Dakota
 There lived a young boy named Rocky Raccoon
 And one day his woman ran off with another guy
 Hit young Rocky in the eye Rocky didn't like that
 He said I'm gonna get that boy
 So one day he walked into town
 Booked himself a room in the local saloon.
 Rocky Raccoon checked into his room
 Only to find Gideon's bible
 Rocky had come equipped with a gun
 To shoot off the legs of his rival
 His rival it seems had broken his dreams
 By stealing the girl of his fancy.
 Her name was Magil and she called herself Lil
 But everyone knew her as Nancy.
 Now she and her man who called himself Dan
 Were in the next room at the hoedown
 Rocky burst in and grinning a grin
 He said Danny boy this is a showdown
 But Daniel was hot-he drew first and shot
 And Rocky collapsed in the corner.
 The doctor came in stinking of gin
 And proceeded to lie on the table
 He said Rocky you met your match
 And Rocky said, Doc it's only a scratch
 And I'll be better I'll be better doc as soon as I am able.
 Now Rocky Raccoon he fell back in his room
 Only to find Gideon's bible
 Gideon checked out and he left it no doubt
 To help with good Rocky's revival.
