How old are you if you remember this? I grew up on Disney and
can sing the song word for word, in my sleep. :eek:

I'm the guy they call little Mickey Mouse,
Got a sweetie down in the chickee house
neither fat or skinny, she's the horses whinney
she's my little Minnie Mouse-

When it's feeding time for the animals
and they howl and growl like the cannibals (WTH?)
I just turn my ear to the hen house near
and you'll hear me sing this song!

The old hound cat with it's meow-ow
the old hound dog with it's bow wow wow
something something cow and the mule- he haw
and gosh what a racket like an old buzz saw

Heh. Mouse Factory was, what, late 70's? You're still a youngster, at least compared to me.

Though I was worried at first when I skimmed your message and saw you fell asleep to "Minnie's Yoohoo," since that is like the very oldest Disney song there is, released in 1929. Then you'd be old!

Ah yes, those good old 78s! I had several that had designs on the label. They came with a mirrored thingy that sat on the spindle and when the record turned, you got a zoetrope effect. I think I had a couple of Disney ones.

If you like Minnie's Yoohoo, you should get Disney's On the Record. It was a very short lived live theatre show that toured a few years ago. It's got a great rendition of that song, although my favorite is the medley of nonsense songs with supercalifragilisticexpialidoceous (sp?), zip-a-de-doo-dah, Hi-Diddle-De-De (this is REALLY fun to type!) and more. Here, you can listen to snipets here:

http://www.amazon.com/Disneys-Record-Mu ... 406#disc_1 (The nonsense song is #25 on Disk 1)

Oh, and here's the lyrics to Minnie's Yoo Hoo (to fill in those blanks)

(Verse 1)
I'm the guy they call little Mickey Mouse
Got a sweetie down in the chicken house
Neither fat nor skinny
She's the horse's whinny
She's my little Minnie Mouse!
When it's feedin' time for the animals
And they howl and growl like the cannibals
I just turn my heel to the henhouse steal
And you'll hear me sing this song
(Chorus)
Oh, the old tomcat with the meow, meow, meow!
Ol' hound dog with the bow-wow-wow!
The crow's caw-caw!
And the mule's hee-haw!
Gosh what a racket like an ol' buzz saw!
I have listened to the cuckoo cuke his coo-coo!
And I've heard the rooster cock his doodle doo-oo
With the cows and the chickens
They all sound like the dickens when I hear my little Minnie's Yoo-Hoo!

(Verse 2)
Oh the blue bird down in the cherry tree
And the busy buzz of the bumblebee
Evening bells a-ringin'
Whip-poor-wills a-singin'
Well they don't mean much to me!
For my heart is down in the chicken house
Where I long to be with my Minnie Mouse
And I'll meet her there
Mid that fragrance rare,
Sing to her this melody!

Words by Walt Disney and Carl Stalling
