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