Annie Ross Love For Sale Lyrics

Love For Sale Lyrics

When the only sound on 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 a wayward town
That a smile
becomes a smirk
I go to work

Love for sale
Appetizing 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 ways
I know every
kind 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 kind but true
love

For sale
Appetizing young love for sale
If you want to buy my
wares
Follow me and climb the stairs
Love for sale
Love for sale
