Hey, folks here's the story 'bout Minnie, the Moocher She was a low down hoochie 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 he 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 the platinum wheels
He gave her his townhouse and his racin' 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
