Verse 1 (Offbeat):<\/p>\n
Well folks let me tell you bout a dame who\u2019s name was Minnie
\nI met her in a bar while I was sipping on whisky
\nNever had I seen such a good looking chick
\nIn a red dress with legs that simply wouldn\u2019t quit
\nI approached and said \u201cExcuse me Miss
\nBut what\u2019s a girl like you doing in a place like this?\u201d
\nShe said \u201cGin\u2019s the only thing that can set me free
\nI hate my man but he just won\u2019t let me leave\u201d
\nShe proceeded to explain he was a bloke named Smokey
\nWho was well known locally for supplying the dope fiends
\nAnd that he had a shipment due later that week
\nThat was worth about a cool hundred thou on the streets
\nAnd if I could get the dough she could arrange a meet up
\nAnd we could bump him off and split the dope between us
\nI thought about it briefly – a big payload
\nPlus a damsel in distress how could I say no?<\/p>\n
Chorus:<\/p>\n
Hidey-Hidey-Hidey-Hi
\n(Hidey-Hidey-Hidey-Hi)
\nHodey-Hodey-Hodey-Ho
\n(Hodey-Hodey-Hodey-Ho)
\nHeedy-Heedy-Heedy-He
\n(Heedy-Heedy-Heedy-He)
\nHidey-Hidey-Hidey-Hi
\n(Hidey-Hidey-Hidey-Hi)<\/p>\n
Verse 2 (Smokey \/ Pye):<\/p>\n
Well folks let me tell you \u2018bout a dame named Minnie
\nI met her on the streets frail, pale and skinny
\nI took her in and fed her, gave her clothes and cheddar
\nAnd said a girl like you could do so much better
\nSo now she loves me, totally devoted
\nWhen I dally with other broads she don\u2019t even notice
\nBut I love baby and I always put my trust in her
\nLike The other day when she found me a new customer
\nSome sucker that she met in a bar she frequented
\nWho had 100 large and was looking to spend it
\nSo Minnie convinced him to make an investment
\nThen came to me and made a suggestion
\nIf I got the dope she could arrange a meet up
\nThen we could bump him off and split the dough between us
\nI\u2019ve brought my knife so if this guy can die right
\nThe by night I\u2019ll skip town and go live the high life<\/p>\n
Chorus:<\/p>\n
Hidey-Hidey-Hidey-Hi
\n(Hidey-Hidey-Hidey-Hi)
\nHodey-Hodey-Hodey-Ho
\n(Hodey-Hodey-Hodey-Ho)
\nHeedy-Heedy-Heedy-He
\n(Heedy-Heedy-Heedy-He)
\nHidey-Hiiiiiiiiiiiii
\n(Hidey-Hiiiiiiiiiiiii)<\/p>\n
Verse 3 (Minnie\/Sharleena Ray):<\/p>\n
Well folks let me tell you all about me
\nMy whole life men have done nothing but doubt me
\nThey treat me like I\u2019m weak because I\u2019m a dame
\nAnd when I met these two chumps they were exactly the same
\nI\u2019ve had it up to here with all the male oppression
\nSo I dreamed up a scheme to teach them a lesson
\nThey took each other out precisely as planned
\nAnd now I got the dope and the hundred grand<\/p>\n
Hidey-Hidey-Hidey-Hidey-Hidey-Hidey-Hidey-Hi
\n(Hidey-Hidey-Hidey-Hidey-Hidey-Hidey-Hidey-Hi)
\nHodey-Hodey-Hodey-Hodey-Hodey-Hodey-Hodey-Ho
\n(Hodey-Hodey-Hodey-Hodey-Hodey-Hodey-Hodey-Ho)
\nSkibbidy-boop Skibbidy-boop Skibbidy-Skibbidy-Skibbidy-boop
\n(Skibbidy-boop Skibbidy-boop Skibbidy-Skibbidy-Skibbidy-boop)
\nBeatbox
