Coasters - Love Potion #9 lyrics

rate me

(Serve it up)<br />

I took my troubles<br />

Down to Madame Ruth<br />

(And drink it down)<br />

You know that gypsy<br />

With the gold-capped tooth<br />

<br />

She's got a storefront<br />

At Thirty-Fourth and Vine<br />

Selling little bottles of<br />

Love potion number nine<br />

<br />

(Serve it up)<br />

Love potion number nine<br />

(And drink it down)<br />

<br />

(Serve it up)<br />

I told her that I<br />

Was a flop with chicks<br />

(And drink it down)<br />

I've been that way<br />

Since 1966<br />

<br />

She looked at my palm<br />

And she made a magic sign<br />

She said, what you need is<br />

Love potion number nine<br />

<br />

(Serve it up)<br />

Love potion number nine<br />

(And drink it down)<br />

<br />

She bent down and turned<br />

Around and gave me a wink<br />

She said, I'm gonna mix it up<br />

Right here in the sink<br />

<br />

It smelled like turpentine<br />

And looked like Indian ink<br />

I held my nose, I closed my eyes<br />

I took a drink<br />

<br />

(Serve it up)<br />

I didn't know if<br />

It was day or night<br />

(And drink it down)<br />

I started kissing<br />

Everything in sight<br />

<br />

But when I kissed a cop<br />

Down at Thirty-Fourth and Vine<br />

He broke my little bottles of<br />

Love potion number nine<br />

<br />

(Serve it up)<br />

Love potion number nine<br />

(And drink it down)<br />

<br />

Serve it up<br />

And drink it down<br />

Serve it up<br />

And drink it down<br />

Serve it up<br />

And drink it down...
