The gypsy woman told my mother Before I was born I got a boy child’s comin’ He’s gonna be a son of a gun He gonna make pretty women’s 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 Concheroo I’m gonna mess with you I’m gonna make you girls Lead me by my hand Then the world will know The hoochie coochie man But you know I’m him Everybody knows I’m him Oh you know I’m the hoochie coochie man Everybody knows I’m him
On the seventh hours On the seventh day On the seventh month The seven doctors say He was born for good luck And that you’ll see I got seven hundred dollars Don’t you mess with me 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
