Kickin' the Gong Around

Kickin' the Gong Around - Dick Robertson & His Orchestra

It was down in Chinatown

All the cookies laid around

Some were high and some were mighty low

There were millions on the floor

When a knock came on the door

And there stood old smoky Joe

He was sweatin' cold and pale

He was lookin' for his frail

He was broke and all his junk ran out

Nobody made a sound

As he stood and looked around

And then old smoky shout end to Joe

Tell me where is Minnie where is Minnie

My poor Minnie you poor Minnie

Has she been here

Kicking the gong around

If you don't know Minnie

She's tall and skinny

She gets her pleasure

Kicking the gong around

Just tell her smoky Joe

Was here and had to go

And as he departed he departed

The curtains parted curtains parted

And there was Minnie

Kicking the gong around

Just tell her smoky Joe

Was here and had to go

And as he departed

The curtains parted

There was Minnie

Kicking the gong around
