Lyrics:

One boy - boy for sale
He's going cheap [spoken: How much then?]
Only seven shillings [spoken: HOW much?]
That's [unintelligible - or fair or foul?]

One boy - boy for sale
He's yours to keep
For one thousand pennies

You can work it out
That's four pounds three, slightly under four guineas
Knocked down from seven guineas
[spoken: Three pounds ten shillings]
Three pounds what, sir?
Sir, [unintelligible]
Let me advance on three pounds ten, then
Going
Going
Gone
I should not say he isn't very greedy
I dare not [unintelligible] telling you a tale

One boy - boy for sale
Come take a peek
Have you ever seen as nice
A boy for sale?
