Jack Johnson Rocky Raccoon lyrics

Well, somewhere in the black mountain hills of Dakota
There lived a young boy named the Rocky Raccoon
One day his woman ran off with another guy
He hit young Rocky in the eye

Rocky didn't like that, he said, "Well, I'ma get that boy"
So, one day he walked into town
And booked himself a room in the local saloon

Rocky Raccoon, he 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, but she called herself Lil
And everyone knew her as Nancy

Well, 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, ah

Doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo
Doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo
Doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo


Doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo
Doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo
Doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo

Doctor came in and stinking of gin
Proceeded to lie on the table
He said, "Rocky, you met your match"

He said, "No, Doc, you know it's only a scratch
And I'll be better, Doc
I will be better as soon as I am able"

So, Rocky Raccoon, he fell back in his room
But only to find Gideon's Bible
Gideon checked out, and he left it, no doubt
To help with good Rocky's revival

Doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo
Doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo
Doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo

Doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo
Doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo
Doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo
