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 make a bid on that

And I said
Hey pretty lady won't you give me 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 blonde hair blue eyes
An' I'm about to bid my heart good-byyye
Well the auctioneer was goin' about a mile a minute
He was takin' bids and callin' them out loud
And I guess I was really gettin' in it
Cuz I just shouted out above the crowd

And I said
Hey pretty lady won't you give me 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 blonde hair blue eyes
An' I'm about to bid my heart good-byyye
Yeah we found love on the auction block
And I hauled her heart away
Now we still love to laugh about
