Gypsy woman told my mama, before I was born
You got a boy-child coming, be a son of a gun
He's gonna make the pretty women, run, jump and shout
He gonna let the world know what it's all about

Because I am
Everybody knows I am
I'm your hoochie coochie man
Everybody knows I am

On the seventh week, on the seventh day
On the seventh month, seventh doctor say
He was born for good luck, can't you see
That seven hundred dollar
Don't you mess with me

Because I am
Everybody knows I am
I'm your hoochie coochie man
Everybody knows I am

I'm a natural born lover
Lord knows I can fight
I'm drinking TNT, I'm smoking dynamite

Because I am
Everybody knows I am
I'm your hoochie coochie man
Everybody knows I am

Gypsy woman told my mama, before I was born
You got a boy-child coming, be a son of a gun
He's gonna make the pretty women, run, jump and shout
He gonna let the world know what it's all about

Because I am
Everybody knows I am
I'm your hoochie coochie man
Everybody knows I am
