Minnie the Moocher Lyrics
She was a red-hot hoochie-coocher
She was the roughest, toughest frail
But Minnie had a heart as big as a whale
Whoa-a-a-a-ah (whoa-a-a-a-ah)
Hee-dee-hee-dee-hee-dee-hee (hee-dee-hee-dee-hee-dee-hee)
He-e-e-e-e-e-e-y (he-e-e-e-e-e-e-y)
She loved him though was cokey
He took her down to Chinatown
And he showed her how to kick the gong around
Whoa-a-a-a-ah (whoa-a-a-a-ah)
He-e-e-e-e-e-e-y (he-e-e-e-e-e-e-y)
Oh-oh-oh-oh (oh-oh-oh-oh)
He gave her things that she was needin'
He gave her a home built of gold and steel
A diamond car with a p-la-ti-num wheel
Ho-dee-ho-dee-ho-dee ho (ho-dee-ho-dee-ho-dee ho)
Skip-de-diddly-skip-de-diddly-diddly-oh (skip-de-diddly-skip-de-diddly-diddly-oh)
Bour'rrigy-bour'rrigy-bour'rrigy-oh (bour'rrigy-bour'rrigy-bour'rrigy-oh)
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
Whoa-a-a-a-ah (whoa-a-a-a-ah)
He-e-e-e-e-e-e-y (he-e-e-e-e-e-e-y)
Whoa-a-a-a-ah (whoa-a-a-a-ah)






Missing significant number of verses. Should end like this (after "...a million times" and the "hi de hi" bit after):
Now Min and Smokie, they started jaggin' They got a free ride in a wagon She gave him money to pay her bail But he left her flat in the county jail
Whoooa, yeaaaah Hey de he de he he Whoa Whoa
Poor Min met old Deacon Lowdown He preached to her that she ought to slow down But Minnie wiggled her jelly roll And Deacon Lowdown yelled, "Lord save my soul!"
Hi de hi de hi de hi Ho de ho de ho de ho Skiddley doodley doodly do Skiddly diddly day
They took her where they put the crazies Now poor Min's kicking up those daisies You've heard my story this is her song She was just a good gal, but they done her wrong
Hi de hi de hi de hi Skooby de be do He de he de he de he Whoa, Whoa Whoa
Poor Min, Poor Min, Poor Min. Read more at http://www.songmeanings.net/songs/view/3530822107858895987/#JL03TzQ4FZAiIj2m.99
