A Dime A Dozen Lyrics by Carla Thomas

Tramp

1968

[Verse 1]
Whatever I need (Whatever I need)
Honey, you can supply (You can supply)
So much of loving (So much of loving)
Money can't buy (Money can't buy)
You're so sweet (You're so sweet)
I said sweeter than apple (Sweeter than apple)
And just like an apple (Just like an apple)
Nobody can sample (Nobody can sample)

[Pre-Chorus]
'Cause you're all mine
And I feel fine
You belong to me
And only your [?]

[Chorus]
And love and kisses don't sell
For a dime a dozen

[Verse 2]
Now if it don't show (If it don't show)
Baby girl is jealous (Girl is jealous)
Now I don't mind giving (Don't mind giving)
'Til it comes to my [?] (Comes to my [?])
Things have got to stop (Got to stop)
That's where I draw the line (Draw the line)
What's yours is yours (Yours is yours)
'Cause mine is mine (Mine is mine)

[Pre-Chorus]
Said he's all mine
And I feel fine
He belongs to me
And all of his huggin'

[Chorus]
And lovin' and kisses don't sell
For a dime a dozen

[Bridge]
Now good, good lovin' is worth all the money in the world
(Good lovin', good lovin')
I said how good, good I'm feeling makes a happy, happy girl, yeah

Maybe a dime a dozen on a Tootsie Roll
But a million dollars don't make a satisfied soul, oh yeah

[Verse 1]
You're so sweet (You're so sweet)
I said sweeter than apple (Sweeter than apple)
And just like an apple (Just like an apple)
Nobody can sample (Nobody can sample)

[Chorus]
And love and kisses don't sell
A dime a dozen

[Outro]
(Dime a dozen)
My man don't come for (Dime a dozen)
I said his kisses don't sell for (Dime a dozen)
Just forget it, forget it (Dime a dozen)
'Cause kisses don't sell for (Dime a dozen)
