Gypsy woman told my mother
Just before I was born
Said, you got a boy-child's comin'
Gonna be a son-of-a-gun
Gonna make pretty women's
Loud, jump and shout
And then the world wanna know
Just what this all about

You know I'm him
Everybody knows I'm him
I'm the hoochie-coochie man child
And everybody knows I'm him

I got a black cat bone
I got a mojo too
I got John the Conqueror
I'm gonna mess with you
Gonna make you girls, yeah
Lead me by my hand
Then the world gonna know
I'm the hoochie-coochie man

Don't you know I'm him
Everybody knows I'm him
I'm the hoochie-coochie man child
Everybody knows I'm him

On the seventh hour of the seven day
Of the seventh month, seven doctor say
I was born for good luck
Just wait and see
I got seven hundred dollars
So don't you mess with me

You know I'm him
Well everybody knows I'm him
I'm the hoochie-coochie man baby
And everybody knows I am him

I'm the hoochie-choochie man
