Here's a story about Minnie the Moocher
She was a low down hoochie-coocher
She was the roughest, toughest frail
But Minnie had a heart as big as a whale

Hodee-hodee-hodee-ho (hodee-hodee-hodee-ho)
Ra-dee-da-dee-da (ra-dee-da-dee-da)
Teedle-teedle-dee (teedle-teedle-dee)
Hodee-hodee-hodee-ho (hodee-hodee-hodee-ho)

Min' 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 platinum car with diamond starlet wheels

Oh Minnie met ol' Deacon Lowdown
He preached to her, oh you oughta slow down
But Minnie wiggled and did the stroll
The Deacon Lowdown hollered, oh save my soul

They took her where they put the crazies
Now poor ol' Minnie is a-kickin' up daisies
You heard my story, this ends my song
She was just a good gal, but they done her wrong
