Love Potion No 9

Love Potion #9 - The Clovers

Written by：D.R.

I took my troubles down to Madam Ruth

You know that gypsy with the gold capped tooth

She's got a path down on thirty fourth and vine

Sellin' little bottles of love potion No. 9

I told her that I was a flop with chicks

I've been that way since nineteen fifty six

She looked at my palm and she made a magic sign

She said what you need is 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 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' every thing in sight

But when I kissed a cop down at thirty fourth and vine

He broke my little bottle of love love potion No. 9

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' every thing in sight

But when I kissed a cop down at thirty fourth and vine

He broke my little bottle of love love potion No. 9
