"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?
