Rocky Raccoon Songtext / Lyric

Now somewhere in the black hill mountains of Dakota

There lived a young boy named Rocky Raccoon

One day his woman ran off with another guy

He hit young Rocky in the eye



Rocky didn't like that

Said, “I'm gonna get that boy”

So one day he walked into town

Booked himself a room at 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 seemed had broken his dreams

By stealing the girl of his fancy

Her name was Magill and she called herself Lil

But everyone knew him as Nancy



Now she and her man who called himself Dan

Were in the next room at the hoe down

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've 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”



So Rocky Raccoon checked back in his room

Only to find Gideon's Bible

[Incomprehensible] Gideon checked out and he left with no doubt

To help with good Rocky's revival
