Lyrics
Burthen:
I’ve got a heart for sale
Does anybody want to buy one?
I’ve got a kiss for sale
Does anybody want to try one?
I’ve got a grass-widow air
A sort of “What do I care”
If there is nothing I miss
I know the meaning of bliss
But home was never like this
I’ve got a closeup look
Does anybody know just what I mean?
I know my little book
Though simple minded I was never green
So in the Journal and World
And in the Herald and Sun
And in the Tribune and Mail
I put a smart little ad
“A Woman’s Loving Heart For Sale”
Sung by Vancha March:
