Sold My Heart to the Junkman Songtext
von Ruth Brown

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.

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 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.
