Love For Sale (2/8/56) |
When the only sound in the empty street, |
Is the heavy tread of the heavy feet |
That belong to a lonesome cop |
I open shop. |
When the moon so long has been gazing down |
On the wayward ways of this wayward town. |
That her smile becomes a smirk, |
I go to work. |
Love for sale, |
Appetising young love for sale. |
Love that's fresh and still unspoiled, |
Love that's only slightly soiled, |
Love for sale. |
Who will buy? |
Who would like to sample my supply? |
Who's prepared to pay the price, |
For a trip to paradise? |
Love for sale |
Let the poets pipe of love |
in their childish way, |
I know every type of love |
Better far than they. |
If you want the thrill of love, |
I've been through the mill of love; |
Old love, new love |
Every love but true love |
Love for sale. |
Appetising young love for sale. |
If you want to buy my wares. |
Follow me and climb the stairs |
Love for sale. |
Love for sale. |
