Now somewhere in the black mining hills of Dakota
There lived a young boy named Rocky Racoon
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 going to get that boy!"
So one day he walked into town,
Booked himself a room in the local saloon.

Rocky Racoon 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 Magill 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.
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."
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!"
Now Rocky Raccoon, he fell back in his room,
Only to find Gideon's Bible.
Gideon checked out and he left it, no doubt,
To help with good Rocky's revival.
