I Sold My Heart To The Junkman (1948) - 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 planned a happy ending

But I’m left with a broken heart

I’ll throw away my pride

And say we’ll be friends, dear

Teardrops I just can’t hide

For 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 planned a happy ending

But I’m left with a broken heart

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

And I’ll never fall in love again
