Hey folks, here's a story about Minnie the Moocher.
[E] She was a [G] low-down, huge goocher.
Rough as hell, but [C] frail.
Minnie had a [E] heart as big [Em] as a whale.
Hidey-hidey-hidey-hide.
Come on.
[G] He-dee-hee-dee-hee-hee.
He-dee-hee-dee-hee-hee.
He-dee-ho.
[E] He left her [G] out with a bloke named Smokey.
Loved him, though he was goofy.
Took her down to Chinatown.
Showed her how to kick the government out.
Hidey-hidey-hidey-hidey.
Whoa.
[Am]
[E] He-dee-hee-dee-hee-dee-hee.
[G]
[Bm] Had a dream about the deacon's sweetie.
He gave her a thing that she was [Em] needin'.
Gave her a home built of gold and steel.
A diamond car with a big platinum wheel.
Hidey-hidey-hidey-hidey-hidey-hidey-hidey -hidey-hidey.
Hidey-hidey-hidey-hidey-hidey-hidey-hidey.
He-dee-hee-dee-hee-dee-hee-hee.
He
[C]
[E] came from [Bm] his town house, racing horses.
These milchies ate woods and doves and goose.
A million dollars, like a nickel to die.
Sat around, counted them all a million times.
Hidey, hidey,
[G]
[Em] hee, dee, hee.
Hidey, hidey, hidey, ho.
