[Verse 1]
Gypsy woman told my mother before I was born
You got a boy-child coming, gonna be a son of a gun
Going to make pretty womens jump and shout
Then the world want to know what he's all about

[Chorus]
But you know I'm here
Everybody knows I'm here
Well, I'm the hoochie coochie man
Everybody knows I'm here

[Verse 2]
I got the black cat bone and I got a mojo too
I got the John the Conqueroo, gonna mess with you
Gonna make you girls lead me by my hand
And then the world will know the hoochie coochie man

[Chorus]

[Verse 3]
On the seventh hour, on the seventh day
On the seventh month, seven doctors say
"He was born for good luck, that you will see"
I got seven hundred dollars, don't you mess with me!

[Chorus]
