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 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, appetizing young
love for sale.
If you want to buy my wares,
follow me and climb the stairs
Love for sale.
