Lyrics
[Verse 1]
The gypsy woman told my mother
Before I was born
"You got a boy child's comin'
Gon' be a a son of a gun
He gonna make pretty womens
Jump and shout"
Then the world wanna know
What this all about
[Verse 2]
'Cause you know I'm here
Everybody knows I'm here
Well, you know I'm the hoochie coochie man
Everybody knows I'm here
[Verse 3]
I got a black cat bone
I got a mojo, too
I got the Johnny Concheroo
I'm gonna mess with you
I'm gonna make you girls
Lead me by my hand
Then the world'll know
That I'm that hoochie coochie man
[Verse 4]
But you know I'm here
Everybody knows I'm here
Well, you know I'm the hoochie coochie man
Everybody knows I'm here
(Alright, Johnny, alright, Johnny, let's play it)
[Verse 5]
On the seventh hour
On the seventh day
On the seventh month
The seventh doctor said
"He was born for good luck
And that you'll see
I got seven hundred dollars
And don't you mess with me"
[Verse 6]
But you know I'm here
Everybody knows I'm here
Well, you know I'm the hoochie coochie boy, yeah
The whole round world know we here
