Now somewhere in the black mining hills out Dakota
There lived a young boy name of 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 going to get that boy."
So one day he walked into town and booked himself a room
in the local saloon.
Rocky Racoon 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, 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.
Da-n-da da da-n-da da da...
Now the doctor came in stinking of gin
and proceeded to lie on the table.
He said, "Rocky, you met your match."
But Rocket 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 dobt
to help with good Rocky's revival.
Oh yeah, yeah
Da-n-da da da-n-da da da...
