(richard fagan/robb royer)



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 I said, hey, pretty lady, woncha gime a sign

Id give anything to make you mine all mine

Ill do your biddin an be at your beckon call

Yeah, I never seen anyone lookin so fine

Man, I gotta have her, shes a one-of-a-kind

Im goin once, goin twice,

Im sold! on the lady in the second row

Shes an eight, shes a nine, shes a ten, I know

Shes got ruby red lips, blond hair, blue eyes

An Im 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 I guess I was really gettin in it

cause I just shouted out above the crowd!



An I said, hey, pretty lady, woncha gime a sign

Id give anything to make you mine all mine

Ill do your biddin an be at your beckon call

Yeah, I never seen anyone lookin so fine

Man, I gotta have her, shes a one-of-a-kind

Im goin once, goin twice,

Im sold! on 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 Im about to bid my heart good-bye!



Yeah, we found love on the auction block

An I hauled her heart away

Now we still love to laugh about

The way we met that day



When I said, hey, pretty lady, woncha gime a sign

Id give anything to make you mine all mine

Ill do your biddin an be at your beckon call

Yeah, I never seen anyone lookin so fine

Man, I gotta have her, shes a one-of-a-kind

Im goin once, goin twice,

Im sold! on the lady in the second row

Shes an eight, shes a nine, shes a ten, I know

Shess got ruby red lips, blond hair blue eyes

An Im about to bid my heart good-bye!
