Love Potion # 9
Words and music by Jerry Leiberman and Mike Stoller
Time: 3:26
I took my troubles down to Madame Rue
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 potions
I told her that I was a flop with chicks
I been that way since 1956
She looked at my palm and she made a magic sign
She said what you need is Love Potion # 9
She bent down turned around give me a wink
She sais I'm gonna fix it up right here in the sink
It smelled like turpentine, 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 on thirty-fourth and Vine
He broke my little bottle of Love Potion # 9
