I took my troubles down to Madame Ruth
You know that gypsy with the gold cap, too
She's got a pad down at 34th and Vine
Selling little bottles of Love Potion #9
I told her that I wasn't fly with men
I've been this way since can't remember when
She looked at my palm and she made a magic sign
She said, "What you need is Love Potion #9"
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 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 that cop down on 34th and Vine
He yelled, "Hallelujah, Love Potion #9!"
