Beatle songs: Rocky Raccoon

 Beatle songs: Rocky Raccoon by ric gustafson


Paul began to compose this song while the band was in India. It is about a man named Rocky whose girl Nancy Magill runs off with someone named Dan. Rocky pursues Dan and tries to shoot him down western style. But he is beaten to the draw. Rocky is treated by a doctor stinking of gin. To Paul the title sounded more cowboyish. The song was released on the album ' the White Album' in November 1968.
