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
Well I, 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
Oh, tell me who, who is gonna buy?
Will you tell me who would like to sample my supply?
And tell me who's prepared to pay that little price
For that trip to paradise
I'm talkin' 'bout love for sale
Honey, let your poets, let them pipe of love
In their childish way
'Cause I know every type of love
Better far than they
If you want the thrill of love
Old Pearl's been through the mill of love
Honey, I've had old love, I've had new love
Had every love but true love
Love for sale
Appetizing, real appetizing, young love for sale
So if you wanna buy my wares
Follow me and climb those stairs
Love for sale
I'm talkin' 'bout love
I wouldn't take up all this time for nothin'
Love for sale
