Love Potion Number Nine
The Clovers
(Written by Jerry Leiber and Mike Stoller)
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 chicks
I'd 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 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 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
========================================
* India Ink is a black liquid made from the pigment derived from lampblack**
**lampblack is a finely divided form of almost pure carbon produced by the
incomplete combustion of organic compounds, such as natural gas, used in making carbon
electrodes and dynamo brushes and as a pigment
The Clovers' original version had a final verse:
I didn't know if it was day or night.
I started kissin' everything in sight.
I had so much fun that I'm goin' back again.
I wonder what happens with Love Potion Number Ten
