Minnie the Electro Moocher(originale) |
| 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 |
| Hi-dee hi-dee hi-dee hi (hi-dee hi-dee hi-dee hi) |
| Whoa-a-a-a-ah (whoa-a-a-a-ah) |
| Hee-dee-hee-dee-hee-dee-hee (hee-dee-hee-dee-hee-dee-hee) |
| He-e-e-e-e-e-e-y (he-e-e-e-e-e-e-y) |
| She messed around with a bloke named Smokey |
| She loved him though was cokey |
| He took her down to Chinatown |
| And he showed her how to kick the gong around |
| Hi-dee hi-dee hi-dee hi (hi-dee hi-dee hi-dee hi) |
| Whoa-a-a-a-ah (whoa-a-a-a-ah) |
| He-e-e-e-e-e-e-y (he-e-e-e-e-e-e-y) |
| Oh-oh-oh-oh (oh-oh-oh-oh) |
| 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 p-la-ti-num wheel |
| Hi-dee hi-dee hi-dee hi (hi-dee hi-dee hi-dee hi) |
| Ho-dee-ho-dee-ho-dee ho (ho-dee-ho-dee-ho-dee ho) |
| Skip-de-diddly-skip-de-diddly-diddly-oh |
| (skip-de-diddly-skip-de-diddly-diddly-oh) |
| Bour’rrigy-bour'rrigy-bour'rrigy-oh (bour'rrigy-bour'rrigy-bour'rrigy-oh) |
| 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-dee hi (hi-dee hi-dee hi-dee hi) |
| Whoa-a-a-a-ah (whoa-a-a-a-ah) |
| He-e-e-e-e-e-e-y (he-e-e-e-e-e-e-y) |
| Whoa-a-a-a-ah (whoa-a-a-a-ah) |
| Poor Min, poor Min, poor Min |
| (traduzione) |
| Gente, ecco una storia su Minnie the Moocher |
| Era una rovente hoochie-coocher |
| Era la più ruvida, la più tenace fragile |
| Ma Minnie aveva un cuore grande quanto una balena |
| Hi-dee hi-dee hi-dee hi (hi-dee hi-dee hi-dee hi) |
| Whoa-a-a-a-ah (Whoa-a-a-a-ah) |
| Hee-dee-hee-dee-hee-dee-hee (hee-dee-hee-dee-hee-dee-hee) |
| He-e-e-e-e-e-e-y (he-e-e-e-e-e-e-e-y) |
| Ha scherzato con un tipo di nome Smokey |
| Lo amava anche se era cocaina |
| L'ha portata a Chinatown |
| E le ha mostrato come prendere a calci il gong |
| Hi-dee hi-dee hi-dee hi (hi-dee hi-dee hi-dee hi) |
| Whoa-a-a-a-ah (Whoa-a-a-a-ah) |
| He-e-e-e-e-e-e-y (he-e-e-e-e-e-e-e-y) |
| Oh-oh-oh-oh (oh-oh-oh-oh) |
| Ha fatto un sogno sul re di Svezia |
| Le ha dato le cose di cui aveva bisogno |
| Le ha dato una casa fatta di oro e acciaio |
| Un'auto diamantata con una ruota p-la-ti-num |
| Hi-dee hi-dee hi-dee hi (hi-dee hi-dee hi-dee hi) |
| Ho-dee-ho-dee-ho-dee ho (ho-dee-ho-dee-ho-dee ho) |
| Skip-de-diddly-skip-de-diddly-diddly-oh |
| (skip-de-diddly-skip-de-diddly-diddly-oh) |
| Bour'rrigy-bour'rrigy-bour'rrigy-oh (bour'rrigy-bour'rrigy-bour'rrigy-oh) |
| Le ha dato la sua casa di città e i suoi cavalli da corsa |
| Ogni pasto che mangiava era una dozzina di portate |
| Aveva un milione di dollari di nickel e monete da dieci centesimi |
| Si è seduta e li ha contati tutti un milione di volte |
| Hi-dee hi-dee hi-dee hi (hi-dee hi-dee hi-dee hi) |
| Whoa-a-a-a-ah (Whoa-a-a-a-ah) |
| He-e-e-e-e-e-e-y (he-e-e-e-e-e-e-e-y) |
| Whoa-a-a-a-ah (Whoa-a-a-a-ah) |
| Povero Min, povero Min, povero Min |
