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
