[Intro]
Em A D7 G D/F#
Em
Now somewhere in the Black Mountain Hills of Dakota
A
There lived a young boy named Rocky Raccoon
D7 G
And one day his woman ran off with another guy
D/F# Em
Hit young Rocky in the eye
Rocky didn't like that
A
He said, "I'm gonna get that boy"
D7
So one day he walked into town
G D/F#
Booked himself a room in the local saloon
[Chorus]
Em A
Rocky Raccoon, checked into his room
D7 G D/F#
Only to find Gideon's Bible
Em A
Rocky had come equipped with a gun
D7 G D/F#
To shoot off the legs of his rival
[Verse]
Em A
His rival, it seems, had broken his dreams
D7. G D/F#
By stealing the girl of his fancy
Em A
Her name was Magill and she called herself Lil
D7 G D/F#
But everyone knew her as Nancy
[Intro 2]
[Verse]
Em A
Now she and her man, who called himself Dan
D7 G D/F#
Where in the next room at the hoedown
Em A
Rocky burst in and grinned in a grin
D7 G D/F#
He said, "Danny boy, this is a showdown"
Em A
But Daniel was hot, he drew first and shot
D7 G D/F#
And Rocky collapsed in the corner
[Intro 2]
[Verse]
Em A
Now, the doctor came in stinking of gin
D7 G D/F#
And proceeded to lie on the table
Em
He said, "Rocky, you met your match"
A
And Rocky said, "Doc, it's only a scratch
D7 G D/F#
And I'll be better, I'll be better, Doc, as soon as I am able"
[Chorus]
Em A
And now Rocky Raccoon, he fell back in his room
D7 G D/F#
Only to find Gideon's Bible
Em A
Gideon checked out and he left it no doubt
D7 G D/F#
To help with good Rocky's revival
