"Boy for Sale" by Lionel Bart
(4/4 time. 4 bar intro)
(Mr Bumble)
One boy...boy for sale!
He's going cheap,
Only seven guineas
That or thereabout.
(Mrs Bumble)
Fine boy...boy for sale!
He's yours to keep
For one thousand pennies
You can work it out.
(Mr Bumble)
If I should say he wasn't very greedy
I could not, I'd be telling you a tale
(Mr and Mrs Bumble)
One boy...boy for sale!
Come take a peep.
Have you ever seen as nice
A boy for sale?
