I Sold My Heart To The Junk Man

Dinah Washington · Other Songs - Dinah Washington

I gave my heart to you, the one that I trusted.

You brought it back to me all broken and busted

So I sold my heart to the junkman

And I'll never fall in love again.



You took my heart because you thought you could use it.

Just like a little toy you battered and bruised it

So I sold my heart to the junkman

And I'll never fall in love again.



Like a melodrama, in a simple manner,

Love played the leading part.

We had planned a happy ending.

Now I'm left with a broken heart.



Ohhh, I'll throw away my pride and say we'll be friends, dear.

Teardrops I just can't hide 'cause this is the end, dear.

I sold my heart to the junkman

And I'll never fall in love again.

Ohhh, I'll throw away my pride and say we'll be friends, dear.

Teardrops I cannot hide 'cause this is the end, dear.

I sold my heart to the junkman

And I'll never fall in love again.

No, I'll never fall in love again.
