Hi-de-hi-de-hi-de-hi (Hi-de-hi-de-hi-de-hi)
Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh (Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh)
You didn't see me climb through the window
Nobody had to open that door
I just climbed right through the wall and I want you one and all
To stand aside and let me have the floor
Take a look, I'm not such a stranger
Here's the face you cokies all ought to know
You can tell me I'm not wanted but the joint will still be haunted
'Cause I'm the ghost of Smokey Joe
Remember when I kicked the bucket
In my mansion up on Strivers' Row
When they came and took me off in a zillion dollar coffin
'Cause I'm the ghost of Smokey Joe
Tell me, do you remember Minnie? (Yeah, we remember Minnie)
That frail I never found
You'll never recognize your Minnie
You mean to say that Minnie quit kicking the gong around?
I've got a date on my estate down in Hades
Call my chariot so I can go
And should the moocher walk in, just tell her you've been talkin'
To the ghost of Smokey Joe
Yes, I remember Minnie, she's that frail I never found
You mean to say that Minnie quit kicking the gong around?
I've got a date on my estate down in Hades
Call my chariot so I can go
And should the moocher walk in, just tell her you've been talkin'
To the ghost of Smokey Joe
Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
La, la, la, Smokey Joe
