Cab Calloway - Minnie The Moocher

Hey folks, here's the story 'bout Minnie the Moocher
She was a lowdown hoochie coocher
She was the roughest toughest frail
But Minnie had a heart as big as a whale

Hidehidehidehi...

She messed around with a bloke named Smokey
She loved him though he was cokey
He took her down to chinatown
And showed her how to kick the gong around

Hidehidehidehi...

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 platinum wheels

A hidehidehidehidehidehidehi...

He gave her his townhouse and his racing horses
Each meal she ate was a dozen courses
Had a million dollars worth of nickels and dimes
She sat around and counted them all a million times

Poor Min, poor Min, poor Minnie
