|
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
