Minnie The Moocher Songtext

Now here's the story bout Minnie the Moocher She was a lowdown hoochie coocher She was the roughest and the toughest frail But Minnie had a heart as big as a whale Hidee-Hidee-Hidee-hey Hedee-Hedee-He Hodee-Hodee-ho She had a dream about the king of Sweden He gave her everything that she was needin' He gave her a home built of golden steel A platinum car with diamond wheels Hidee-Hidee-Hidee-hey Hedee-Hedee-He Hodee-Hodee-ho Now Minnie and Smokey, they started shaggin' They got a free ride in a wagon She gave him money to pay her bail But don't you know he went and left her in the jail Hidee-Hidee-Hidee-hey Hedee-Hedee-He Hodee-Hodee-ho Oh Minnie met old Deacon Lowdown He preached to her that she oughta slow down But Minnie just stood and rocked and rolled And Deacon Lowdown please save my soul Hodee-Hidee-Hidee-hey Hedee-Hedee-He Hodee-Hodee-ho They took her where they put the bad ladies And now Minnie is pushin' up daisies You heard my story now this ends my song She's a good gal but they done her wrong Hidee-Hidee-Hidee-hey Hedee-Hedee-He Hodee-Hodee-ho
