Hoochie Coochie Songtext
von Long John Baldry

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

Why′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

Why'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"

Why'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

Why'know I′m here
Everybody knows I'm here
And I'm the hoochie-coochie man
Everybody knows I′m here

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
