Lyrics
It was down in Chinatown
All the coke-ies laid around
Some were high and some were mighty low
Count millions on the floor
When a knock came on the door
And there stood old Smoky Joe
He was sweatin', cold and pale
He was lookin' for his frail
He was broke and all his junk ran out
As he stood and looked around
Nobody made a sound
And then you hear old Smoky shout
Tell me where is Minnie? (Where is Minnie?)
Whoa, I want my little Minnie (Little old Minnie)
Has she been here
Kickin' the gong around?
If you don't know Minnie (You don't know Minnie)
Oh, she's tall and she's skinny (She's tall and she's skinny)
She gets her pleasure
Kickin' the gong around
You just tell her Smoky Joe
Was here and had to go
And as he departed (As he departed)
The curtains parted (The curtains parted)
And there was Minnie (Minnie)
Kickin' the gong around
You just tell her Smoky Joe
Was here and had to go
And as he departed (As he departed)
The curtains parted (The curtains parted)
And there was Minnie (Minnie)
Kickin' the gong around
