Lyrics

[Verse 1]
The gypsy woman told my mother
Before I was born
You got a boy child's coming
Gonna be a son of a gun
[Verse 2]
He gonna make pretty women
Jump and shout
Then the world wanna know
What this all about
[Verse 3]
But you know I'm him
Everybody knows I'm him
Well, you know the Hoochie Coochie Man
Everybody knows I'm him
[Verse 4]
I got a black cat bone
I got a mojo tooth
I got the John the conqueror root
I'm gonna mess with you
[Verse 5]
I'm gonna make you girls
Lead me by my hand
Then the world'll know
That I'm a Hoochie Coochie Man
[Verse 6]
But you know I'm him
Everybody knows I'm him
Oh, you know the Hoochie Coochie Man
Everybody knows I'm him
[Verse 7]
On the seventh hour
On the seventh day
On the seventh month
The seven doctors said
[Verse 8]
I was born for good luck
And that you'll see
I got seven hundred dollars
So, don't you mess with me, yeah
[Verse 9]
But you know I'm him
Everybody knows I'm him
Yeah, from the Hoochie Coochie Man
Everybody knows I'm him
[Verse 10]
And I had to say
You were born for good luck
And I learn that you'll see
[Verse 11]
But you know I'm him
Everybody knows I'm him
Well, you know I'm the Hoochie Coochie Man
And the whole, the whole round world know we're here
