Help needed - I can't make out what Mick Jagger is saying here.

Could you help me, I can't make out what
Mick Jagger is saying at 01:10 in this video?





This is what I understand so far:

"The one for that was Dirk, really. He was
a real hustler for the songs, I think,
always wanting to sell a song, you know,
for any [THIS BIT?], any old slag
he'd sell a song to, [IS THIS CORRECT: right once it's up.]

Thank you in advance.

I think he tries to say "for anyone [I think he means to anyone?], didn't matter, any old ****", but he fluffs his words.

On first listening I thought the next part was "... write one, sit up" (i.e. stay up late writing a song), but I'm not certain at all.

He says "wanted" not "wanting".
