Cab Calloway And His Orchestra - Minnie The Moocher's Wedding Day lyrics
[Cab Calloway And His Orchestra - Minnie The Moocher's Wedding Day lyrics]
It's made to order for you
I just bet it'll fit you
Follow up these red hot blues
Grab a taxi and go down
Chinatown's on a spree
Let me give you the lowdown
This is really history
Whenever folks in Chinatown start acting gay
There's something in the air that
Makes them feel that way
Yeah, man, I heard somebody say
It's Minnie the Moocher's wedding day!
Old Smoky Joe's so happy he can hardly wait
He's spent a million dollars
For his wedding date
Yeah, man, they're gonna celebrate
It's Minnie the Moocher's wedding day
You better come on down
Way down in Chinatown
Oh, let me take you down
To see them kick the gong around
A million cokies shouting
"Hay-de hay-de hay!"
The king of Sweden's gonna
Give the bride away
Yeah, man, I heard somebody say
It's Minnie the Moocher's wedding day!
The king and queen of every nation
Were glad to get an invitation
The prince of Wales said he would get away
For Minnie the Moocher's wedding day!
They said a hundred thousand hoppies
Went over to China picking poppies
They're gonna put them all in one bouquet
For Minnie the Moocher's wedding day!
Hi-de-hi-de-hi ho-de-ho-de-ho-de-ho!
Hay-de hay-de hay
It's Minnie the Moocher's wedding day!
Yeah, man! Why, what's that them boys say?
It's Minnie the Moocher's wedding day!
