Minnie the Moocher (Theme Song) (78rpm Version)
Folk's here's the story 'bout Minnie the Moocher
She was a red hot hoochie coocher
She was the roughest toughest frail
But Minnie had a heart a big as a whale
Hidey-hi's
She messed around with a bloke named Smokey
She loved him though he was coke-y
He took her down to Chinatown
And he showed her how to kick the gong around
Hidey-hi's
She had a dream about the King of Sweden
He gave her things that she was needin'
Gave her a home built of gold and steel
A diamond car with the platinum wheels
Fast hidey-hi's
He gave her a 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 a million times
Hidey-hi's
Poor min poor min poor min
