Now somewhere in the Black Mountain Hills of Dakota

There lived a young boy named 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 gonna get that boy"

So one day he walked into town

Booked himself a room in the local saloon

Rocky Raccoon, checked into his room

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 Magill and she called herself Lil

But everyone knew her as Nancy

Now she and her man, who called himself Dan

Where in the next room at the hoedown

Rocky burst in and grinned in 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

Now, the doctor came in stinking of gin

And proceeded to lie on the table

He said, "Rocky, you met your match"

And Rocky said, "Doc, it's only a scratch

And I'll be better, I'll be better, Doc, as soon as I am able"

And now Rocky Raccoon, he fell back in his room

Gideon checked out and he left it no doubt

To help with good Rocky's revival, oh, ooh, yeah, yeah

Do-do-do, yeah, I saw you rockin' at the top
