Sold (The Grundy County Auction Incident)

Well I went down to the Grundy County Auction
 Where I saw somethin' I just had to have
 My mind told me I should proceed with caution
 But my heart said go ahead and make a bid on that
 And I said, "Hey, pretty lady! Won't you gimme a sign?
 I'd give anything to make you mine, all mine
 I'll do your biddin' and be at your beck and call"
 Yeah, I've 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 to 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
 And I'm about to bid my heart goodbye
 ♪
 Well, the auctioneer was goin' 'bout a mile a minute
 He was takin' bids and callin' them out loud
 And I guess I was really gettin' in it
 'Cause I just shouted out above the crowd
 And I said, "Hey, pretty lady! Won't you gimme a sign?
 I'd give anything to make you mine, all mine
 I'll do your biddin' and be at your beck and call"
 Yeah, I've 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 to the lady in the long black dress
 Well 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 goodbye
 
 Yeah, we found love on the auction block and I hauled her heart away
 Now we still love to laugh about, the way we met that day
 When I said, "Hey, pretty lady! Won't you gimme a sign?
 I'd give anything to make you mine, all mine
 I'll do your biddin' and be at your beck and call"
 Yeah, I've 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 to 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
 And I'm about to bid my heart goodbye hee
