Lyrics

   
Now somewhere in the black mining hills of Dakota
Lived a young boy named Rocky Raccoon
Now one day his woman ran off with another guy
Hit poor Rocky in the eye, Rocky didn't like that
He said "I'm gonna get that boy"
So he went into town
And he booked himself a room in the local saloon.

Now 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 Mcgill, she called herself Lil
And everyone knew her as Nancy.
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-here is a showdown"
Ah but Daniel was hot, he drew first and shot
And Rocky collapsed in the corner.

Now the doctor came in stinking of gin
And he proceeded to lie on the table
He said "Rocky you met your match"
And Rocky said, "naw Doc it's only a scratch
And I'll be better, look here Doc,
I'll be better soon as I am able".

Now Rocky Raccoon fell back into his room
Only to find Gideon's bible
Gideon checked out and he left it no doubt
To help with poor Rocky's revival.
