Rocky Racoon, he was a fool unto himself
                      G7              C
For he would not swallow, his foolish pride
     Am7                                    Dm7
Mind you, coming from a little town in Minnesota,
                      G7
It is not the kind of thing a young guy did
                        C
When a fellow went and stole his chick away from him.

    Am7                    Dm7 or D7
Now, Rocky Raccoon checked into his room
  G7                 C
Only to find Gideon's Bible
    Am7                 Dm7 or D7
Rocky had come equipped with a gun
     G7                 C
To shoot off the legs of his rival

     Am7                 Dm7
His rival it seems had broken his dreams
      G7                   C
By stealing the girl of his fancy.
     Am7                Dm7
Her name was Magil and she called herself Lil
    G7                  C
But everyone knew her as Nancy.

     Am7                Dm7
Now she and her man who called himself Dan
     G7                C
Were in the next room at the hoe down
     Am7                 Dm7
And Rocky burst in and grinning a grin
        G7               C
He said Danny Boy this is a showdown

     Am7                Dm7
But Daniel was hot, he drew first and shot
    G7                    C
And Rocky collapsed in the corner.

  G7                  C

   Am7                 Dm7
The doctor walked in stinking of gin
   G7                 C
Proceeded to lie on the table
          Am7                       Dm7
The doctor said "Rock, you met your match, Son."

Rocky said, no it's only a scratch
               G7
I'll be better soon Doc, I'll be better soon.
       C
Well come on Rock, come on Rock.

     Am7              Dm7
Rocky Raccoon fell back in his room
     G7              C
Only to find Gideon's Bible
    Am7               Dm7
Gideon checked out and he left him no doubt
    G7                C
To hell with good Rocky's revival.
(yeah)
