(I'm Your) Hoochie Coochie Man

A song written by Willie Dixon and recorded by Muddy Waters in 1954 for Chess Records, built on what is arguably the most familiar blues riff in the world (duh-Dah-duh-dah-DAH...duh-Dah-duh-dah-DAH...repeat eleventy hundred times). The lyrics elaborate on the theme "I am a badass" with lines like:

I got a black cat bone
I got a mojo too
I got the Johnny Concheroo
I'm gonna mess with you.

Depending on which interpretation you believe, a "hoochie coochie man" is either a sexual powerhouse or a hoodoo magician, though both meanings are used in the song.
