"Minnie's Yoo Hoo" was first performed by Mickey Mouse in the short, Mickey's Follies. The song was written and composed by Carl W. Stalling and has since been performed in On the Record. It then became the theme song of the Mickey Mouse theatrical cartoons from 1929 to 1933 (Jungle Rhythm to Mickey's Mechanical Man). It was also shown being played on a phonograph in the comic strip storyline "Mr. Slicker and the Egg Robbers".

The song was later used as the credits theme for The Mouse Factory.

In Disney's Magic Artist, the song is used as the instrumental for Minnie's drawing tutorial.

A re-orchestrated instrumental version was used as the opening theme to Mickey Mouse Works.

Mickey sung the song again, with extremely modified lyrics, in the series finale of the House of Mouse titled "Mickey and the Culture Clash", where he and Minnie referred to it as their song.

An instrumental version of the song can be heard in the Mickey Mouse episode "Eau de Minnie" as Minnie was "la-laaing" to it while walking on her way to her date with Mickey. Also, in the episode "Bottle Shocked", the song can briefly be heard as a ringtone on Mickey's cell phone.

This song entered the public domain in the United States on January 1, 2025.

Lyrics

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

Oh, the old tomcat with his meow, meow, meow
Old houn' dog with his bow, wow, wow
The crows caw caw
And the mule's hee haw
Gosh, what a racket like an old buzz saw

I have listened to the cuckoo 'kuke' his cuckoo
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.

Oh, the blue bird down in the cherry tree
And the busy buzz of the bumble bee
Evening bells a ringin'
Whippoorwills 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:

Oh, the old tomcat with his meow, meow, meow
Old houn' dog with his bow, wow, wow
The crows caw caw
And the mule's hee haw
Gosh, what a racket like an old buzz saw

I have listened to the cuckoo 'kuke' his cuckoo
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.
