Minnie The Moocher

Jason Raleigh

Sides Face, Grand Square
Hey folks here's the story 'bout Minnie the Moocher
She was a lowdown hoochie coocher
She was the roughest, toughest frail
But Minnie had a heart
Allemande Left and Weave the Ring
Hidee hidee hidee hi (Hidee hidee hidee hi)
Hodee hodee hodee ho (Hodee hodee hodee ho)
Hee dee hee dee hee dee hee (Hee dee hee dee hee dee hee)
A Hidee hidee hidee ho (Hidee hidee hidee ho)

NOTE: Lyrics in parentheses were "echoed" back by the band in the original Cab Calloway recording.
The alternate ('B') version included has a split track with the "echoes" given on the RIGHT stereo track.

Replace first line of the Grand Square lyrics with...
Well folks that’s the story 'bout Minnie the Moocher

Head/Sides Promenade half way round now
Walk in and Square Thru 4 hands round
Go all the way and do the Right and Left Thru
Pass Thru, Trade by, Slide Thru
Square Thru 3
Swing and Promenade
Hee dee hee dee hee dee hee (Hee dee hee dee hee dee hee)
A Hidee hidee hidee ho (Hidee hidee hidee ho)

Poor Min!
