Lyrics
Folks here's a story about Minnie the Moocher
She was a red hot hoochie-koocher
She was the roughest toughest frail
But Minnie had a heart as big as a whale
Now she messed around with a bloke named Smoky
She loved him though he was cokey
He took her down to Chinatown
He showed her how to kick the gong around
(Showed her how to kick the gong around)
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
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
She sat around and counted them all a million times
Poor Minnie poor Minnie...
She was a red hot hoochie-koocher
She was the roughest toughest frail
But Minnie had a heart as big as a whale
Now she messed around with a bloke named Smoky
She loved him though he was cokey
He took her down to Chinatown
He showed her how to kick the gong around
(Showed her how to kick the gong around)
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
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
She sat around and counted them all a million times
Poor Minnie poor Minnie...
