Minnie the Moocher -- 1931 Lyrics by:
Cab Calloway, Irving Mills, Clarence Gaskill
Folks here's a story 'bout Minnie the Moocher,
She was a red hot hoochie coocher,
She was the roughest, toughest frail,
but Minnie had a heart as big as a whale.
Ho-dee ho-dee ho
Ho-dee ho-dee ho
Hi-dee hi-dee hi-dee hi
Hi-dee hi-dee hi-dee hi
Hey-dee hey
Hey-dee hey
Whoah
Whoah
She messed around with a bloke named Smokey.
She loved him though was cokie,
he took her down to Chinatown
and he showed her how to kick the gong around.
Hey-dee hey-dee hey
Hey-dee hey-dee hey
Oy yoi yoi yoi yoi yoi
Oy yoi yoi yoi yoi yoi
Ay yi yi yi yi yi-oh
Ay yi yi yi yi yi-oh
Whoah
Whoah
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 the platinum wheel.
Hi-dee hi-dee hi-dee hi-dee hi
Hi-dee hi-dee hi-dee hi-dee hi
Hey-dee hey-dee hey-dee hey-dee hey
Hey-dee hey-dee hey-dee hey-dee hey
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,
She sat around and counted them all a million times.
Hi-dee hi-dee hi
Hi-dee hi-dee hi
Whoah
Whoah
Poor Min, poor Min, poor Min.

He raised Cab from the dead with this one.
I don't know why this video doesn't have Millions of views. BEST version I have EVER heard!!!! .....both for the music ....and the singing. ( I have watched this sooo many times). I actually think that this is the best of ALL Puddles is. All the things he does with his voice here and his interaction with the audiece!!!! I only wish the camera was closer when this was made. It must have been great to see this LIVE!!!
Cab would have loved his rendition...He rules!
Fabulous!
Award.
This was fantastic!
Wow.
:D Ohhhhhhhhhhhhh My Lord.............. Dear Puddles, Is there ANYTHING you cant tackle ??????????? :D LEGEND !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
He sang the song well, in this case I wish the person recording could have had a close up of his face during this.
He’s the best bestt besstttttttttt!!!
This is fucking great Puddles did Cab right
Out of the Inkwell! If you can find it watch the Betty Boop with St James Infirmary. That band, whoever they were, owns the song.

Love it! Fun!
One of my all-time favorite songs. He kind of messed up the lyric when he tried to get the audience member to sing, though. He sang the line that person was supposed to sing.

The audience is supposed to repeat what he sings. Often it would start simple build up then jump to a long long run of scat that the audience would not be able to repeat. i read a piece in Reader's Digest where a guy said when he and his brother were kids they practiced for months before a Danny Kaye concert and were the only two in the audience that could repeat the last line.

It's not the scat line. In the third verse, he sang the wrong line then panicked and gave the mike to the audience to make it into a joke.
This may not be the best video but it is the ONLY video of Puddles doing this song and his voice is AMAZING here!!!!!! (So is his interaction with the audience)!!!!!! Also, thanks to the person who took this video and had the courage to post it, even though it wasn't a perfect video.

Joe Snow-How can that be when the two of them have never been seen in the same place at once?
interesting
I know this song well, but I was wondering why poor min? Yeah, she might have been a lady of the evening, and Smokey her pimp who was cokey (crack is wack) and he brought her to Chinatown to do opium, but: He gave her dozen course meals, A diamond car with platinum wheels, A million dollars of nickels and dimes, It doesn't sound too bad! P.S. Now I realize that she was dreaming of the King of Sweden giving her those things. I also read he had longer versions where she and Smokey get arrested and he bails himself out and leaves her in. They put her in an insane asylum. Poor Min, poor Min, poor Min!
That little growl... mmmm puddles!
music is great but ruined by whoever is holding the camera...

Ruined? How rude and ungrateful. Comments like this are useless and is the reason KZread stopped showing how many dislikes are voted on videos. Also, the music is not ruined.
That applause tho. uggh.
