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 |
|
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 |
