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, andquot;go ahead anand' make a bid on that!andquot;

iand'd give anything to make you mine all mine
iand'll do your biddinand' anand' be at your beckon call
yeah, i never seen anyone lookinand' so fine
man, i gotta have her, sheand's a one-of-a-kind
iand'm goinand' once, goinand' twice,
iand'm sold! on the lady in the second row
sheand's an eight, sheand's a nine, sheand's a ten, i know
sheand's got ruby red lips, blond hair, blue eyes
anand' iand'm about to bid my heart good-bye!
Well, the auctioneer was goinand' about a mile a minute
he was takinand' bids anand' callinand' them out loud
anand' i guess i was really gettinand' in it
and'cause i just shouted out above the crowd!
Anand' i said, hey, pretty lady, wonand'cha giand'me a sign

Yeah, we found love on the auction block
anand' i hauled her heart away

the way we met that day
When i said, hey, pretty lady, wonand'cha giand'me a sign
