Folks here's a story 'bout minnie the moocher
She was a red hot hoochie coocher
She was the roughest toughest frail
But minnie had a heart as big as a whale
Ho de ho ho de ho ho de ho ho de ho
Hi de hi hi de hi hi de hi hi de hi
Hee de hee de hee de hee
Hee de hee de hee de hee
Oh re oh re oh re oh
Oh re oh re oh re oh
She messed around with a bloke named Smokey
She loved him though he was cokey
He took her down to chinatown
And showed her
How to kick the gong around
Hi de hi de hi de hi de hi de hi
Yo yo yo yyo yo yo yo yo
Yo yo yo yyo yo yo
Ai ai ai ai ai ai yeee
Ai ai ai ai ai ai yeee
Oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh
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 puh latinum wheels
Hi de hi de hi de hi
Hi de hi de hi de hi
Hee de hee de hee de hee
Hee de hee de hee de hee
Ere ere ere ere eeeee
Ere ere ere ere eeeee
Woa wao wao ohhhhh
Woa wao wao ohhhhh
He gave her his town house and his racing horses
Each meal she ate was a dozen courses
She had a million dollars in nickels and dimes
She sat around and counted it all a million times
Hi de hi de hi
Hi de hi de hi
Ho oh whoaa oh oh whoa
Aey aey aaa aa aey
Aey aey aaa aa aey
Oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh
Poor man poor man poor man
