Gypsy woman told my mother
Before I was born
Got a boy child comin

Like a son of a gun
A boy and girl
Both jump and shout

And world's gonna find out
What it's all about


Because I and I am
Yeah, everybody knows I am
Said I'm your Hoochie Coochie Man

And everybody knows I am

I got a black cat bone

A mojo tooth
Talk bout John the Conqueree
That dont mess with you

A man and a woman
A boy and girl
In hoochie coochie ghetto

Drive around the world

Just like I am

And everybody knows I am
Said I'm your Hoochie Coochie Man
And everybody knows I am


On th 7th hour
Come 7 days

Talk bout 7 months
And 7 docters say
Your born for bad luck

That's a low down shame to see
I got seven thousand dollars
Dontcha mess with me


Because I am
Yeah, everybody knows I am

Said I'm a Hoochie Coochie Man
And everybody knows I am
Everybody knows...

You know I am
