Bobby Darin - Minnie the Moocher lyrics

rate me

Now here's the story bout Minnie the Moocher

She was a lowdown hoochie coocher

She was the roughest and the toughest frail

But Minnie had a heart as big as a whale

Hidee-Hidee-Hidee-hey

Hedee-Hedee-He

Hodee-Hodee-ho

She had a dream about the king of Sweden

He gave her everything that she was needin

He gave her a home built of golden steel

A platinum car with diamond wheels

Hidee-Hidee-Hidee-hey

Hedee-Hedee-He

Hodee-Hodee-ho

Now Minnie and Smokey, they started shaggin

They got a free ride in a wagon

She gave him money to pay her bail

But don't you know he went and left her in the jail

Hidee-Hidee-Hidee-hey

Hedee-Hedee-He

Hodee-Hodee-ho

Oh Minnie met old Deacon Lowdown

He preached to her that she oughta slowdown

But Minnie just stood and rock and rolled

And Deacon Lowdown please save my soul

Hodee-Hidee-Hidee-hey

Hedee-Hedee-He

Hodee-Hodee-ho

They took her where they put the bad ladies

And now Minnie is pushin up dasies

You heard my story now this ends my song

She's a good gail but they done her wrong

Hidee-Hidee-Hidee-hey

Hedee-Hedee-He

Hodee-Hodee-ho
