Lyrics

Here's a story
Here's a story
Here's a story
Here's a story 'bout Minnie the Moocher
She was a blow down hair chicken
She was the roughest, toughest frail
But Minnie had a heart as big as a whale
(Hi-de-hi-de-hi-de-hi)
Hi-de-hi-de-hi-de-hi
(Hi-de-hi-de-hi-de-hi)
Ho-de-ho-de-ho-de-ho
(Ho-de-ho-de-ho-de-ho)
He-de-he-de-he-de-he
(He-de-he-de-he-de-he)
Hi-de-hi-de-hi-de-ho
(Hi-de-hi-de-hi-de-ho)
She messed around with a bloke named Smokey
She loved him though he was cokey
She took her down to Chinatown
And he showed her how to kick the gong around
(Hi-de-hi-de-hi-de-hi)
Hi-de-hi-de-hi-de-hi
(Hi-de-hi-de-hi-de-hi)
Ho-de-ho-de-ho-de-ho
(Ho-de-ho-de-ho-de-ho)
He-de-he-de-he-de-he
(He-de-he-de-he-de-he)
Hi-de-hi-de-hi-de-ho
(Hi-de-hi-de-hi-de-ho)
A-hi-de-hi-de-hi-de-hi-de-hi
Ho-de-ho-de-ho-de-ho-de-ho-de-ho-de-ho
Squidelie-Voo-Squidelie-Voo-Squidelie-Voodeley-Voodeley-Voo
Come on everybody, oh
Hi-de-hi-de-hi-de-hi
(Hi-de-hi-de-hi-de-hi)
Ho-de-ho-de-ho-de-ho
(Ho-de-ho-de-ho-de-ho)
Squidelie-Voo-Squidelie-Voo-Squidelie-Voodeley-Voodeley-Voo
(Squidelie-Voo-Squidelie-Voo-Squidelie-Voodeley-Voodeley-Voo)
Sid-did-did-did-didely-but-did-didely-skid-did-didely-but-din-zoy
Here's a story
Here's a story
Here's a story
