Rocky Racoon, he was a fool unto himself
|
For he would not swallow, his foolish pride
|
Mind you, coming from a little town in Minnesota,
|
It is not the kind of thing a young guy did
|
When a fellow went and stole his chick away from him.
|
|
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 Magil 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 hoe down
|
And Rocky burst in and grinning a grin
|
He said Danny Boy this is a showdown
|
|
But Daniel was hot, he drew fast and shot
|
And Rocky collapsed in the corner.
|
|
Da la la dum ba dum da da (3x)
|
|
The doctor walked in stinking of gin
|
Proceeded to lie on the table
|
The doctor said "Rock, you met your match, Son."
|
Rocky said, no it's only a scratch
|
I'll be better, Doc, I'll be better soon.
|
|
Well come on Rock, come on Rock.
|
|
Rocky Raccoon fell back in his room
|
Only to find Gideon's Bible
|
Gideon checked out and he left him no doubt
|
To hell with good Rocky's revival.
