Lyrics Muddy Waters – (I’m Your) Hoochie Coochie Man
Text:
The gypsy woman told my mother
Before I was born
«You got a boy child’s comin’
Gon’ be a son of a gun
Jump and shout
Then the world wanna know
What this all about.»
But you know I’m him
Everybody knows I’m him
Well, you know I’m the hoochie coochie man
Everybody knows I’m him
I got a black cat bone
I got a mojo too
I got the John the Conqueror root
I’m gonna mess with you
I’m gonna make you, girls
Lead me by my hand
Then the world will know
I’m a hoochie coochie man
But you know I’m him
Everybody knows I’m him
Well, I’m the hoochie coochie man
Everybody knows I’m him
Alright, darling.
Alright, darling.
Let’s …
On the seventh hour
On the seventh day
On the seventh month
«He was born for good luck.»
And that you’ll see
I got seven hundred dollars
Don’t you mess with me
But you know I’m him
Everybody knows I’m him
Well, you know I’m the hoochie coochie man
The whole round world know we’re here
