Minnie The Moocher

Folks, now here's the story 'bout Minnie the Moocher,

she was a red-hot hootchie-cootcher,

she was the roughest, toughest frail,

but Minnie had a heart as big as a whale.

Hi-de-hi-de-hi-di-ho!

Hi-de-hi-de-hi-de-ho!

Now, she messed around with a bloke named Smoky

she loved him though he was cokie,

he took her down to chinatown,

he showed her how to kick the gong around.

Now, she had a dream about the king of Sweden,

he gave her things that she was needin',

he gave her a home built of gold and steel,

a diamond car with a platinum wheel.

Now, he gave her his townhouse and his racing horses,

each meal she ate was a dozen courses;

she had a million dollars worth of nickels and dimes,

and she sat around and counted them all a billion times.

Poor Min, poor Min, poor Min.
