Lyrics for Love Potion Number Nine

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 Sellin' little bottles of love potion number nine I told her that i was a flop with chics 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 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 kissin' 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 ------ guitar solo ------ 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 thirty-fourth and vine He broke my little bottle of love potion number nine Love potion number nine Love potion number nine Love potion number nine
