I'm pretty sure these lyrics are wrong. This song borrows lyrics from Muddy Waters's "(I'm Your) Hoochie Coochie Man," which goes: Gypsy woman told my mother/before I was born/"You got a boy child coming/And he's gonna be a son of a gun." RJD2's version did change it to "and the world's gonna know" but they definitely kept the gypsy woman part. Anyway, GREAT song, and the original is supposed to be about a guy who's got more mojo (and thus more lady friends) than he knows what to do with.
