I know when to go I know when to go Take my time down the hall With my eyes up on the wall I hear my shoes and I hear my sigh I watch myself walk out from the light Clovers in my eyes The way the light falls On the bus on the way home Clovers in my eyes Trying to stay awake Trying to stay away Lying down on the grass Clover bed under my back Close my eyes In the middle of the day Close my eyes And it feels just the same Clovers in my eyes The way the light falls On the bus on the way home Clovers in my eyes Trying to stay awake Trying to stay away Clovers in my eyes The way the light falls On the bus on the way home Clovers in my eyes Trying to stay awake Trying to stay away Clovers in my eyes

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 chics I've 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 Indian 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 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
