Cab Calloway - Minnie the moocher

Tekst :

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.

[Call and response scat chorus differs every time. The following is simplified:]
Hi-de-hi-de-hi-di-hi!
Ho-de-ho-de-ho-de-ho!
He-de-he-de-he-de-he!
Ho-de-ho-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.

    Alive in the desert heat the sun holds her heart as it drains
    Every breath and tears limbs apart... as night lays its shroud
    She lies down to wait and the moon cools her bones as it
    Seals her fate
    And no one to know
    And no one to hear
    That final ghostly
    Cry
    Alive in the...

    Krótkie w³osy,
    toksyczny wzrok.
    Wystarczy³a jedna chwila
    teraz jest za pó¼no.
    Krótkie w³osy,
    toksyczny wzrok.
    Wystarczy³a jedna chwila,
    nie wiem co siê ze mn± dzieje.

    Look at all the people

    Ah, yeah
    (Look around...) All their eyes are starin at u

    Look at all the people,
    Starin at u and u
    They wanna see u do your best,
    So u better stand up to the test
    Look at all the people

    4 Who ur

    Like the wind will never stay
    Like the water, moved away

    Wish you all my life for who you are

    There is so much I would tell you
    But this night is gone too fast
    Who will find the raisers?
    The sun...

    Right side, wrong bed

    The pages of the calendar
    Are flyin off faster as I get old
    And if I had a second take
    I d wanna make the same mistakes
    Except for the clothes

    And the part about the one that got away
    When I was blind I fell behind
    And here I ve gotta stay

    And I m lying...
