Love Potion No.9

The Searchers
The Best Of The Searchers 1963-64

I took my troubles down to Madame RueYou know that gypsy with the gold-capped toothShe's got a pad down on Thirty-Fourth and VineSellin' little bottles of Love Potion No. 9

I told her that I was a flop with chicksI've been this way since 1956She looked at my palm and she made a magic signShe said, "What you need is Love Potion No. 9"She bent down and turned around and gave me a winkShe said, "I'm gonna make it up right here in the sink"It smelled like turpentine, it looked like Indian ink

I held my nose, I closed my eyes, I took a drinkI didn't know if it was day or nightI started kissin' everything in sightBut when I kissed a cop down on Thirty-Fourth and VineHe broke my little bottle of Love Potion No. 9
