A gypsy woman told my mama on the night I was born |
|
"You got a boy child coming, gonna be a son-of-a-gun |
|
Gonna make the pretty woman, Lord, jump and shout |
|
You know he's gonna show them all what it's all about" |
|
Because I am |
|
Oh, everybody knows I am |
|
I'm the hoochie coochie man |
|
Everybody knows that I am |
|
So on the seventh hour of the seventh day |
|
Of the seventh month, seven doctors say |
|
"He was born for good luck, Lord, can't you see?" |
|
I got seven hundred dollars in my pocket, baby |
|
Don't you mess with me |
|
Because I am |
|
Lord, everybody knows I am |
|
Oh, I'm the hoochie coochie man |
|
Lord, everybody knows that I am |
|
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah |

I am the hoochie coochie man |

|
I got a sharp straight razor, I'm about to fuck with you |
|
I was born for good luck, Lord, can't you see? |
|
I got seven hundred dollars in my pocket, baby |
|
Now don't you mess with me |
|
Because I am |
|
Oh, everybody knows I am |
|
Oh yeah, baby |

Everybody knows that I am |
