lyrics

I took my troubles down to Madame Ruth
You know that lady with the gold-capped tooth
Well she's got a patch down on 34th and Vine
Selling little bottles of
Love Potion No . 9

I told her that I was flop with chicks
I've been this way since 1996
She looked at my palm and she gave a magic sign
She said what you need is
Love Potion No. 9

Well she bent down and turned around and gave 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 it was day or night
I started kissing everything in sight
But when I kissed a policeman down on 34th and Vine
Well he broke my little bottle of
Love Potion No. 9

I didn't know it was day or night
I started kissing everything in sight
But when I kissed a policeman down on 34th and Vine
Well he broke my little bottle of
Love Potion No. 9
