Lyrics:

Hey folks here's the story 'bout Minnie the Moocher

She was a lowdown hoocie coocher

She was the roughest toughest frail

But Minnie had a heart as big as a whale



Hidehidehidehi (Hidehidehidehi)

Hodehodehodeho (Hodehodehodeho)

Hedehedehedehe (Hedehedehedehe)

Hidehidehideho (Hidehidehideho)





She messed around with a bloke named Smokie

She loved him though he was cokey

He took her down to Chinatown

and showed her how to kick the gong around





Hidehidehidehi (Hidehidehidehi)

Whoah (Whoah)

Hedehedehedehe (Hedehedehedehe)

A hidehidehideho (Hidehidehideho)





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 platinum wheels





A hidehidehidehidehidehidehi (Hidehidehidehidehidehidehi)

Hodehodehodehodehodehodeho (Hodehodehodehodehodehodeho)

... (...)

... (...)





He gave her his townhouse and his racing horses

Each meal she ate was a dozen courses

Had a million dollars worth of nickels and dimes

She sat around and counted them all a million times





Hidehidehidehi (Hidehidehidehi)

Hodehodehodeho (Hodehodehodeho)

Hedehedehedehe (Hedehedehedehe)

Hidehidehideho (Hidehidehideho)





Poor Min, poor Min, poor Minnie
