Sold (the Grundy County Auction Incident)

Well I went down to the Grundy County Auction

When I saw something I just had to have

My mind told me I should proceed with caution

But my heart said to go ahead and make a bid on that

Chorus::

And I said

Hey pretty lady why don't you give me a sign

I'd give anything to make you mine o' mine

I'll do your biddin and be at your beck and call

I've never seen anyone lookin so fine

Man I got to have her she's a one of a kind

I'm going once, I'm 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, blonde hair, blue eyes

and I'm about to bid my heart goodbye.

Well the Auctioneer was going about 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

Chorus

to the lady in the long black dress

cause she won my heart it was no contest

with her ruby red lips, blonde hair, blue eyes

well I'm about to bid my heart goodbye

Yah, well we found love on the auction block

I throw my heart away

and we love and laugh about the way we met that day

Chorus

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, blonde hair, blue eyes

and I'm about to bid my heart goodbye.

Whooo!
