Folks, here's a story about Minnie the Moocher She was a red hot hoochie-koocher She was the roughest, toughest frail but Minnie had a heart as big as a wha-a-le
She messed around with a bloke named Smoky She loved him though he was cokey He took her down to Chinatown Where he showed her how to kick the gong around
she had a dream that the King of Sweden He gave her things that she was needin' He built her a house 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 She had a million dollars worth of nickels and dimes she sat around and counted them all a million times
She was a red hot hoochie-koocher
She was the roughest, toughest frail

Typist: The fellow likes to sing this in my head. It's a 1930s thing. You'd have to have been there, I guess...
