The gypsy woman told my mother
Before I was born
You've got a boy child's comin'

He'll be a son of a gun
He's gonna make pretty women
Jump and shout

Then the world's gonna know
What this poor boy's all about
'Cause I'm him

Everybody knows I'm him
Yeah, I'm a hoochie coochie man
Everybody knows I'm him


I got a black cat bone
I got a mojo too

I got Johnny the Concheroo
Gonna mess with you
I'm gonna make all you women

Lead me by my hand
Then the world's gonna know
I'm a hoochie coochie man

'Cause 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 hour

On the seventh day
On the seventh month
Seven doctors say

He was born for good luck
And that you'll see
I got seven hundred dollars

Now don't you mess with me
But you know I'm him
Everybody knows I'm him

I'm the hoochie coochie man
Everybody knows I'm him
