Minnie The Moocher
Folks, now here's the story 'bout Minnie the Moocher,
she was a red-hot hootchie-cootcher,
she was the roughest, toughest frail,
but Minnie had a heart as big as a whale.
Hi-de-hi-de-hi-di-ho!
Hi-de-hi-de-hi-de-ho!
Now, she messed around with a bloke named Smoky
she loved him though he was cokie,
he took her down to chinatown,
he showed her how to kick the gong around.
Now, 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 a platinum wheel.
Now, he gave her his townhouse and his racing horses,
each meal she ate was a dozen courses;
she had a million dollars worth of nickels and dimes,
and she sat around and counted them all a billion times.
Poor Min, poor Min, poor Min.
Minnie La Pordiosera
Amigos, aquí está la historia de Minnie la Pordiosera,
ella era una mujer muy atractiva,
era la más ruda y resistente,
pero Minnie tenía un corazón tan grande como una ballena.
¡Hi-de-hi-de-hi-di-ho!
¡Hi-de-hi-de-hi-de-ho!
Ahora, ella andaba con un tipo llamado Smoky,
lo amaba aunque fuera adicto,
él la llevó a Chinatown,
le enseñó cómo tocar el gong.
Ahora, ella soñaba con el rey de Suecia,
él le daba cosas que necesitaba,
le dio una casa de oro y acero,
un auto de diamantes con ruedas de platino.
Él le dio su casa de la ciudad y sus caballos de carreras,
cada comida que comía era de doce platos;
tenía un millón de dólares en monedas de níquel y centavos,
y se sentaba a contarlos mil millones de veces.
Pobre Min, pobre Min, pobre Min.
