Love Potion No. 9

I took my troubles down to Madam Rue

You know that gypsy with the gold tattoo

She's got a pad down on 34th and Vine

And seven little bottles of love potion #9

I told her that I was a flop with chicks

I've been this way since 1956

She looked at my palm and she made a magic sign

She said what you need is love potion #9

She bent down and turned around and give 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 closed 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 a cop down on 34th and Vine

He broke my little bottle of love potion #9

She bent down and turned around and give 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 closed 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 a cop down on 34th and Vine

He broke my little bottle of love potion #9

love potion #9
