[Verse 1] 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 [Chorus] Hi de hi de hi de hi Ho de ho de ho de ho Hee de hee de hee de hee Hi de hi de hi de ho [Verse 2] 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 [Chorus 2] Hi de hi de hi de hi Whoa Hee de hee de hee de hee Hi de hi de hi de ho [Verse 3] 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 platinum wheels [Chorus 3] Hi-de-hi-de-hi-de-hi-de-hi-de-hi-de-hi Ho-de-ho-de-ho-de-ho-de-ho-de-oh Skeedle-a-booka-diki biki skeedly beeka gookity woop! A-booriki-booriki-booriki hoy! [Verse 4] He gave her his town house 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 all a million times [Chorus] Hi de hi de hi de hi Ho de ho de ho de ho Hee de hee de hee de hee Hi de hi de hi de ho [Outro] Poor Min Poor Min Poor Min
