Hoochie Coochie Man
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Gypsy woman told my mother 'fore I was born
You got a boy-child coming, gonna be a son of a gun
Gonna make pretty womens jump and shout
And then the world gonna know what this all about
But you know I'm him
Everybody knows I'm him
Well, I'm the Hoochie Coochie Man
Everybody knows I'm him
I got the black cat bone and I got a mojo, too
I got the John the Conquerer Root, gonna mess with you
I'm gonna make you girls lead me by my hand
And then the world will know the 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
On the seventh hour, on the seventh day
On the seventh month, seven doctors say
He was born for good luck, 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, I'm the Hoochie Coochie Man
Everybody knows I'm him
