Love Potion No.9
I took my trouble down
To Madam Ruth.
You know the gypsy with
The gold capped tooth.
She's got a pad down at
Thirty fourth and wine.
Sellin' little bottle of
Love potion number nine.
I told her that
I was a flop with chicks.
I've been this way
Since nineteen fifty six.
She looked at my palm
And she magic sigh.
She said what you need is
Love potion number nine.
She bent down and turned
Around and gave me a wink.
She said I'm gonna mix it
Up right here in the sink.
It smelled like turpentine
And looked like indian ink.
I held my nose,
I close my eyes,
I took a drink.
I didn't know if
It was day or night.
I started kissin'
Everything in sight.
But when I kissed the cop
Down at thirty and wine.
He broke my little bottle of
Love potion number nine.
She bent down and turned
Around and gave me a wink.
She said I'm gonna mix it
Up right here in the sink.
It smelled like turpentine
And looked like indian ink.
I held my nose,
I close my eyes,
I took a drink.
I didn't know if
It was day or night.
I started kissin'
Everything in sight.
But when I kissed the cop
Down at thirty and wine.
He broke my little bottle of
Love potion number nine.
Love potion number nine,
Love potion number nine,
Love potion number nine,
Love potion number nine
To Madam Ruth.
You know the gypsy with
The gold capped tooth.
She's got a pad down at
Thirty fourth and wine.
Sellin' little bottle of
Love potion number nine.
I told her that
I was a flop with chicks.
I've been this way
Since nineteen fifty six.
She looked at my palm
And she magic sigh.
She said what you need is
Love potion number nine.
She bent down and turned
Around and gave me a wink.
She said I'm gonna mix it
Up right here in the sink.
It smelled like turpentine
And looked like indian ink.
I held my nose,
I close my eyes,
I took a drink.
I didn't know if
It was day or night.
I started kissin'
Everything in sight.
But when I kissed the cop
Down at thirty and wine.
He broke my little bottle of
Love potion number nine.
She bent down and turned
Around and gave me a wink.
She said I'm gonna mix it
Up right here in the sink.
It smelled like turpentine
And looked like indian ink.
I held my nose,
I close my eyes,
I took a drink.
I didn't know if
It was day or night.
I started kissin'
Everything in sight.
But when I kissed the cop
Down at thirty and wine.
He broke my little bottle of
Love potion number nine.
Love potion number nine,
Love potion number nine,
Love potion number nine,
Love potion number nine
