Am7                                         D7 
Now somewhere in the Black Mountain hills of Dakota 
                                       G7 
there lived a young boy named Rocky Raccoon 
And one day his woman ran off with another guy 
 C 
Hit young Rocky in the eye 
 C/B 
Rocky didn`t like that, 
 Am7                           D7 
he said I`m gonna get that boy 
       G7 
So one day he walked into town 
                      C              C/B 
and booked himself a room in a local saloon 
 
 Am7                    D7 
Rocky Raccoon, checked into his room, 
 G7                    C    C/B 
only to find Gideon`s Bible. 
 Am7             D7 
Rocky had come, equipped with a gun, 
   G7                         C    C/B 
to shoot off the legs of his rival 
    Am7                 D7 
His rival it seems, had broken his dreams, 
   G7                         C   C/B 
by stealing the girl of his fancy 
     Am7                      D7 
Her name was McGill, And she called herself Lil, 
     G7                   C    C/B 
but everyone knew her as Nancy 
 
Now she and her man, who called himself Dan, 
were in the next room at the hoedown 
Rocky burst in and grinning 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," 
but Rocky said, "Doc, it`s only a scratch 
and I`ll be better, I`ll be better, Doc, as soon as I am able." 
 
Now Rocky Raccoon, he fell back in his room 
only to find Gideons Bible 
Gideon checked out and he left it no doubt 
to help with good Rocky`s revival.
