Love for Sale


                                   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

                                   The moon so long has been gazing down
                                   On the wayward ways of this wayward town
                                   My smile becomes a smirk, i go to work 

                                   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
                              
Love for Sale
Cole Porter
1931
