Kickin' the Gong Around

Harold Arlen, Ted Koehler

(Yeah, no)

It was down in Chinatown
All the cokies laid around
Some were high and some were mighty low
There were 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
Nobody made a sound
As he stood and looked around
And then you hear old Smoky shout

"Tell me where is Minnie?" (Tell me where is Minnie?)
My poor Minnie (my poor Minnie)
Has she been here
Kickin' the gong around?

"If you don't know Minnie" (don't know Minnie)
She's tall and skinny (tall and skinny)
She gets her pleasure
Kicking the gong around

(Yeah)
(No)
(No)

"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 stood Minnie
Kicking the gong around

(Yeah)
(No)
(No)

"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 stood Minnie
Kicking the gong around
