Rocky Raccoon Lyrics by Lena Horne, Gábor Szabó

Lena & Gabor

[Verse 1]
Now somewhere in the black mining hills of Dakota
There lived a young boy named Rocky Raccoon
One day his woman run off with another guy
Hit young Rocky in the eye
Rocky didn't like that
He said, "I'm gon' get that boy"
So one day he walked into town
And booked himself a room in the local saloon
[Chorus]
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
[Verse 2]
His rival, it seemed, had broken his dreams
By stealing the girl of his fancy
Her name was Magill, she called herself "Lil"
But еveryone knew hеr as Nancy
[Instrumental Bridge]
[Verse 3]
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 Danny was hot, he drew first and shot
And Rocky collapsed in the corner
The doctor burst in, and grinning a grin
Proceeded to lie on the table
He said, "Rocky, you met your match"
Rocky said, "Doc, it's only a scratch
And I'm gon' get better, I'll be better, Doc, as soon as I'm able"
[Chorus]
Now Rocky Raccoon fell back in his room
Only to find Gideon's bible
Gideon checked out, he left with no doubt
To help with old Rocky's revival, oh
[Outro]
Rocky Raccoon (Rocky, Rocky, Rocky, Rocky)
Rocky Raccoon (Rocky, Rocky, Rocky, Rocky)
Rocky Raccoon
Get 'em, get 'em, get 'em, get 'em
Rocky Raccoon
Rocky Raccoon
Rocky Raccoon
Get 'em, get 'em, get 'em, get 'em
Rocky Raccoon
Rocky Raccoon
Rocky Raccoon
Get 'em, get 'em, get 'em, get 'em
Rocky Raccoon
