mel tormé - love for sale lyrics
[spoken intro]
thank you so much, ladies and gentlemen
[verse 1]
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 her supply?
who would care to pay the price
for a trip to paradise
love for sale
[bridge]
let the poets pipe of love
in their childish ways
she’s known every type of love
better far than they
she’s known every thrill of love
she’s been through the mill of love
old love, new love
every love but true…
[verse 2]
love for sale
appetizing young love for sale
if you want to buy her wares
follow her and climb the stairs
love…
[scatting]

[bridge]
let the poets pipe of love
in their childish ways
she’s known every type of love
better far than they
she’s known every thrill of love
she’s been through the mill of love
old love, new love
every love but true…
[outro]
love for sale
appetizing young love for sale
if you want to buy her wares
follow her and climb the stairs
love for sale, love for sale
climb the stairs, buy her wares
still unspoiled, slightly soiled
love for sale, love for sale
love, love for sale
[outro dialogue]
what a trio! wow!
thank you very much
the song you’re about to hear was written by buddy johnson, a wonderful tenor saxophone player
it’s bluesy, kinda s-xy, and we hope you like it
