The gypsy woman told my mother
before I was born:
“You got a boy child comin',
he's gonna be a son of a gun.
He gonna make pretty women
jump and shout,
then the world wanna know
what this all about?”
But you know I'm him.
Everybody knows I'm him.
Well, you know I'm the Hoochie Coochie Man.
Everybody knows I'm him.
I got a black cat bone.
I got a mojo too.
I got the Johnny Conkeroo,
I'm gonna mess with you.
I'm gonna make you girls
lead me by my hand
then the world will know
that I'm a Hoochie Coochie Man.
But you know I'm him.
Everybody knows I'm him.
Well you know I'm the Hoochie Coochie Man.
Everybody knows I'm him.
On the seventh hour,
on the seventh day,
on the seventh month
the seventh doctor said :
“You was born for good luck”.
And that you'll see
I got seven hundred dollars
and don't you mess with me.
But you know I'm him.
Everybody knows I'm him.
Well you know we're the Hoochie Coochie boy.
The whole round world knows we here.
