Well I went down to the
Grundy County Auction
Where I saw something
I just had to have
My mind told me I should
proceed with caution
But my heart said,
"Go ahead an' make
a bid on that!"
An' l said,
hey, pretty lady,
won'cha gi'me a sign
I'd give anything to
make you mine all mine
I'll do your biddin'
an' be at your
beckon call
Yeah, I never seen anyone
lookin' so fine
Man, I gotta have her,
she's a one-of-a-kind
I'm goin' once, goin' twice,
I'm sold! On the lady
in the second row. She's
an eight, she's a nine,
she's a ten, I know
She's got ruby red lips,
blond hair, blue eyes
An' I'm about to bid
my heart good-bye!
Well, the auctioneer
was goin' about
a mile a minute
He was takin' bids
an' callin' them out loud
An' l guess I was
really gettin' in it
'Cause I just shouted out
above the crowd!
An' l said,
hey, pretty lady,
won'cha gi'me a sign
I'd give anything to
make you mine all mine
I'll do your biddin'
an' be at your
beckon call
Yeah, I never seen
anyone lookin' so fine
Man, I gotta have her,
she's a one-of-a-kind
I'm goin' once,
goin' twice, I'm sold!
On the lady in the
long black dress
'Cos she won my heart
it was no contest
With her ruby red lips,
blond hair, blue eyes
Well I'm about to bid
my heart good-bye!
Yeah, we found love
on the auction block
An' l hauled
her heart away
Now we still love
to laugh about
The way we met
that day
When I said,
hey, pretty lady,
won'cha gi'me a sign
I'd give anything to
make you mine all mine
I'll do your biddin'
an' be at your
beckon call
Yeah, I never seen anyone
lookin' so fine
Man, I gotta have her,
she's a one-of-a-kind
I'm goin' once,
goin' twice, I'm sold!
On the lady in the
second row
She's an eight,
she's a nine, she's a ten,
I know. Shes's got
ruby red lips, blond hair
blue eyes
An' I'm about
to bid my heart
good-bye! Woah
