- Minnie The Moocher Lyrics / with translationsFolks here's a story about Minnie the Moocher
She was a low down hootchie kootcher
She was the roughest and the toughest frail
But Minnie had a heart as big as a whale
Hi hi dee hi dee hi
He he dee he dee he
Hoo hoo do hoo do hoo
(French)
(French)
Ouvre la fenetre, (another French word)
(a bunch of giggling)
She messed around with the king of Sweden
He gave her every little thing that she was needin'
He gave her a million dollars in nickels and dimes
She sat around and counted them a million times
Hi dee Hi dee Hi dee Hi dee Hi dee Hi dee yah
Hee dee hee
(something sounding Russian)
(something else sounding Russian)
(something sounding Oriental)
(something else sounding Oriental)
Oh dah lil layee
Oh dah layee, oh dah layee, oh dah layee
He he
(Danny does some scattin' then tells the choir guys to
try "go ahead")
(Choir guys laugh)
They sent for Minnie where they put the crazies
Now poor ol' Minnie's pushing up the daisies
This ends the story and it ends my song
She was just a little gal but they done her wrong
She was a low down hootchie kootcher
She was the roughest and the toughest frail
But Minnie had a heart as big as a whale
Hi hi dee hi dee hi
He he dee he dee he
Hoo hoo do hoo do hoo
(French)
(French)
Ouvre la fenetre, (another French word)
(a bunch of giggling)
She messed around with the king of Sweden
He gave her every little thing that she was needin'
He gave her a million dollars in nickels and dimes
She sat around and counted them a million times
Hi dee Hi dee Hi dee Hi dee Hi dee Hi dee yah
(something sounding Russian)
(something else sounding Russian)
(something sounding Oriental)
(something else sounding Oriental)
Oh dah lil layee
Oh dah layee, oh dah layee, oh dah layee
He he
(Danny does some scattin' then tells the choir guys to

(Choir guys laugh)
They sent for Minnie where they put the crazies
Now poor ol' Minnie's pushing up the daisies
This ends the story and it ends my song
She was just a little gal but they done her wrong
