John Lennon：He was a fool unto himself

Rocky Raccoon

Rocky Raccoon

He was a fool unto himself

And he would not swallow his foolish pride

Mind you, coming from a little town in Minnesota

It was not the kind of thing that a young guy did

When a fellow went and stole his chick away from him

Now 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 hoedown

And Rocky burst in, and grinning a grin

Said, "Danny boy, this is a showdown"

But Daniel was hot, he drew first and shot

And Rocky collapsed in the corner

The doctor walked in sminking of gin (laugh) [Sminking?]
And proceeded to lie on the table

He's really sminking of gin

And it did him in the end

Meantime back on the table, yeah

The doctor said, "Rock, you met your match, son"

Rocky said, "it's only a scratch, son

I'll be better soon"

"You better be, better soon," said the doc

Come on son, gotta get hip
Gotta get up
Gotta get back to your gun
Gotta go shoot at, Danny Boy

However, Rocky Raccoon fell back in his room

Only to find Gideon's bible

Gideon checked out and left it no doubt

To help with good Rocky's revival

Da da da da...
That's the story of the Rocky Raccoon

Now Rocky Racoon

Got up from his room and he walked out through the swing doors of the local saloon
Straight into the arms of someone new

Someone who he'd known from a long way back

Maybe from his primary school days
A young friend Rocky recognized
He said, "honey, will you be my new honey-bunch"
She said "Rocky boy, come on, I'll show you why I love you."
"Young Rocky Racoon, I love the way you wear your hat
Love the way you hid your pants, Rocky Raccoon, I dig you"
He said, "missus, I dig you too, come with me"
