Gypsy woman told my momma, before I was born You got a boy-child comin', gonna be a son-of-a-gun Gonna make these pretty women, jump and shout And the world will only know, a-what it's all about
Y'know I'm here Everybody knows I'm here And I'm the hoochie-coochie man Everybody knows I'm here
On the seventh hour, of the seventh day, on the seventh month, the seventh doctor said: "He's born for good luck, and I know you see; Got seven hundred dollars, and don't you mess with me
Y'know I'm here Everybody knows I'm here And I'm the hoochie-coochie man Everybody knows I'm here
Gypsy woman told my momma Said "Ooh, what a boy, he gonna make so many women, jump and shout for joy"
Y'know I'm here Everybody knows I'm here And I'm the hoochie-coochie man Everybody knows I'm here
Gypsy woman told my momma, before I was born You got a boy-child comin', gonna be a son-of-a-gun Gonna make these pretty women, jump and shout And the world will only know, a-what it's all about
Y'know I'm here Everybody knows I'm here And I'm the hoochie-coochie man Everybody knows I'm here
Additional 2nd verse from original 1954 Muddy Waters take:
I got a black cat bone, I got a mojo too I got John the Conqueror, I'm gonna mess with you I'm gonna make you, pretty girl, lead me by the hand Then the world will know, the Hoochie-Coochie Man
