Love Gun Album - Got Love For Sale

This song was originally titled “Have Love Will Travel,” which forms part of the lyrics in the chorus. This song had developed out of Gene’s original lyrics for “Man Of 1,000 Faces.” That song dated to at least 1975, possibly earlier, and was on one prospective track list for possible use during the recording of “Dressed To Kill.” The first verse for that song had gone:

Condition’s red and you can’t get to bed
Your eyes are full of tears
Headache, heartache, a pain you can’t take
That’s not the end to all your fears

Part of the second verse of “Got Love For Sale” was changed from the original “Man Of 1,000 Faces” second verse from:

I know you need me, I know you want me
‘Cause I’m a living cross you bear
You’ve got to have me, can’t live without me
‘Cause I’m the one and only, yes I am...
