Minnie The Moocher

(album: Footsoldier In The Moonlight - 1993)

Now here's the story 'bout Minnie the Moocher
She was a red hot hoochie koocher
She was the roughest, toughest frail
Minnie had a heart as big as a whale

Hidey hidey hidey hi
(Hidey hidey hidey hi)
Hodey hodey hodey ho
(Hodey hodey hodey ho)
Heedey heedey heedey hee
Whoa
Minnie the Moocher

She must have run with a bloke named Smokey
She loved him though he was cokey
He took her down to China town
Showed her how to keep the gold around

She had a dream about the King of Sweden
He gave her things that she was needing
He gave her a home built of gold and steel
A diamond car with the a platinum wheel

He gave her is 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 a million times
