I took my troubles down to Madame Ruth,
you know that gypsy with the gold-capped tooth.
She's got a pad down on thirty-fourth and vine,
Selling little bottles 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 made a magic sign,
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 make it up right here in the sink."
It smelled like turpentine, it 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 kissing everything in sight,
but when I kissed a cop down on thirty-fourth and vine,
he broke my little bottle of Love Potion Number Nine.
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 on thirty-fourth and vine,
he broke my little bottle of Love Potion Number Nine.
