The Beatles - Rocky Raccoon lyrics

[The Beatles - Rocky Raccoon lyrics]

Now somewhere in the black
Mining hills of Dakota
There lived a young boy named Rocky Raccoon
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 into town
Booked himself a room in the local saloon

And 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

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
And 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, aaah

Dan, dan, dan, dan dan
Dan, dan, dan, dan dan
Dan, dan, dan, dan dan
Dan, dan, dooroo do do
Do do do, dooroo do do
Do dooroo do do, do do
Do do do, dooroo do do
Do dooroo do do, do do

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"

And now, Rocky Raccoon
He fell back in his room
Only to find Gideon's Bible (Oh, dou dou dou)
Gideon checked out, and he left it, no doubt
(Oooh Rocky, oooh)
To help with good Rocky's revival, aah
Yeah, yeah

Do do do, dooroo do do
Do dooroo do do, do do
Do do do, dooroo do do
Do dooroo do do, do do
Do do do, dooroo do do
Do dooroo do do, do do
Do do do, dooroo do do
Do dooroo do do, do do
Do do do, dooroo do do
Do dooroo do do, do do c'mon, Rocky boy
Do do do, dooroo do do c'mon, Rocky boy
Do do do, dooroo do do
Do dooroo do do, do do
Yeah, c'mon, let's Rocky it!
