Minnie The Moocher
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
[Original Chorus]
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
[Variations on Chorus]
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
[Variations on Chorus]
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
[Variations on Chorus]
Minnie La Pordiosera
Aquí hay una historia sobre Minnie la Pordiosera
Ella era una mujer de baja calaña
Ella era la más ruda, la más resistente
Pero Minnie tenía un corazón tan grande como una ballena
[Estribillo Original]
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)
Minnie tuvo un sueño sobre el Rey de Suecia
Él le dio cosas que ella necesitaba
Le dio un hogar construido de oro y acero
Un auto de platino con ruedas de estrella de diamante
[Variaciones del Estribillo]
Oh Minnie conoció al viejo Diácono Bajón
Él le predicó, oh deberías calmarte
Pero Minnie se retorció y dio un paseo
El Diácono Bajón gritó, oh salva mi alma
[Variaciones del Estribillo]
La llevaron donde ponen a los locos
Ahora la pobre Minnie está mordiendo margaritas
Escuchaste mi historia, esto termina mi canción
Ella era solo una buena chica, pero le hicieron mal
[Variaciones del Estribillo]
