Lyrics ROCKY RACOON - The Blackbirds

Well it was somewhere in the black mountain hills of Dakota
Where 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 gonna get that boy
So one day he walked in stout
Booked a room in a 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
'Cause his rival it seems had broken his
Dreams by stealing the girl of his fancy
Her name was migill
And she called her self lill
But everyone knew her as Nancy
And now she and her man,
Who called himself Dan,
Were in the next room at the holdown

A Rocky burst in grinning a grin
He said Danny boy this is a show down
But Daniel was hot, he drew first and shot
And Rocky collapsed in the corner

Now the doctor came in stinking of gin, proceeded to lie on the table
He said Rocky you met your match
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 Racoon
He fell back in his room
Only to find Gideon's bible
And Gideon checked out
And he left it no doubt
To help with good Rocky's revival
