African Man

Gypsy woman told my mama
'While 'fore i was born
Got a boy child comin' mama
He'll be a bad one, now.

I'll make all you little girls
Turn your heads around
Then i'm gonna take you little girls
Gonna take you right on down with me yeah.

Ho, you just wait and see
I'll be your hoochie coochie man
I'll set you free
On the seventh hour of the seventh day

On the seventh month
Seven doctors they say
I've got lots of good luck
You know they all agree.

But now if ya
If you're lookin' for trouble babe
You better not mess with me
Hey, 'cause you know i'll getcha one by one.

Ain't no fun
I'm that old hoochie coochie man
A bad son of a gun.

Got a john the conqueroot
And got some mojo too,
We got a black cat born,
We're gonna slip it to you.

Hey, move over people just as fast as you can
Said i know you're waitin' for me
'Cause i'm the hoochie coochie man
I'm gonna get you, one by one.

I got set on that old hoochie coochie man
And i'm yo' son of a gun
Now the gypsy woman told mama
Oh 'while 'fore i was born.

She said you know he's comin' mama
He'll be a bad, very bad one
Make all the ladies
Turn their heads around.

You said, i can just see all those women
Chasin' him all down
I'm your hoochie coochie man
Everybody knows it.
