Love Potion No 9 - The Clovers

I took my troubles down to Madame Ruth

You know that gypsy

With the gold cap tooth

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

Sellin' little bottles of Love Potion no 9

Love Potion no 9

I told her that I was a flop with chicks

I been this way since 1956

She looked at my palm

And she made a magic sign

She said

Whatcha need is

A bottle of Love Potion no 9

She bent down and turned around

And gave me a wink

She said I'm gonna make it up

Right here in the sink

It smelled like turpentine

And looked like India 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 kissing everything in sight

But when I kissed a cop

Down at 34th and Vine

He broke my little bottle of

Love Potion no 9

I held my breath and closed my eyes

I took a drink

I didn't know if it was day or night

I started kissing everything in sight

But when I kissed a cop

Down on 34th and Vine

He broke my little bottle of

Love Potion no 9

She bent down and turned around

And gave me a wink

She said I'm gonna make it up

Right here in the sink

It smelled like turpentine

And looked like India 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 kissing everything in sight

But when I kissed a cop

Down at 34th and Vine

He broke my little bottle of

Love Potion no 9

Love Potion no 9

Love Potion no 9

Love Potion no 9
