Hey folks here's the story 'bout minnie the moocher She was a lowdown hoocie coocher She was the roughest toughest frail But minnie had a heart as big as a whale
She messed around with a bloke named smokie She loved him though he was cokey He took her down to chinatown And 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 Had a million dollars worth of nickels and dimes She sat around and counted them all a million times
