Harold Arlen - Kickin' The Gong Around

Harold Arlen

Kickin' The Gong Around

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:

Saying, "tell me where is minnie?
My poor minnie!
Has she been here,
Kicking the gong around? "

"if you don't know minnie,
She's tall and skinny,
She gets her pleasure
Kicking the gong around!"

[scat chorus]

"just tell her smoky joe
Was here and had to go."
And as he departed,
The curtains parted,
And there stood minnie
Kicking the gong around!

Mirror lyrics:

Kicking the gong around!
And there stood minnie
The curtains parted,
And as he departed,
Was here and had to go."
"just tell her smoky joe

[scat chorus]

Kicking the gong around!"
She gets her pleasure
She's tall and skinny,
"if you don't know minnie,

Kicking the gong around? "
Has she been here,
My poor minnie!
Saying, "tell me where is minnie?

And then you hear old smoky shout:
As he stood and looked around,
Nobody made a sound,
He was broke and all his junk ran out;
He was lookin' for his frail,
He was sweatin', cold and pale,

And there stood old smoky joe.
When a knock came on the door,
There were millions on the floor
Some were high and some were mighty low;
All the cokies laid around,
It was down in chinatown,
