Minnie Shimme For Me Composer(s): Jimmy Lucas; Billy Frisch
Big Sam Green had a queen, a regular dance hall houn' And every where this gal would go Big Sam would sure be foun' She worked down in Sam's laundry Waited on the trade all day When an idle hour would roll around You'd hear big Sam Green says
Minnie Snow said I'll go and nurse all the boys from France And every day, to cheer them up She'll do her little dance The boys all seemed to like it For they all would soon get well Everytime that she would pass their cots You'd hear the boys all yell
Minnie shimme for me Minnie, shimme for me Get way down, bend your knees Do that lovin' shiveree Minnie, shimme for me you're as sweet as you can be You're better than a Broadway show You're graceful when you move so slow Say that's some dance (Oh Boy) Let's go Minnie do the shimme for me
Minnie shimme for me Minnie, shimme for me Get way down, bend your knees Do that lovin' shiveree Minnie, shimme for me you're as sweet as you can be A soldier in an ambulance got just one look at Minne's dance And yelled I'm cured I'll take one chance Minnie do the shimme for me
