Intro: A D G (x2)
A D
Well I went down to the Grundy County Auction
A E
Where I saw something I just had to have
A D
My mind told me I should proceed with caution
A E A
But my heart said, "Go a head an' make a bid on that!"
A
An' I said, hey, pretty lady, won'cha gi'me a sign
I'd give anything to make you mine all mine
D G A
I'll do your biddin' an' be at your beckon call
Yeah, I never seen anyone lookin' so fine
Man, I gotta have her, she's a one-of-a-kind
D E
I'm goin' once, goin' twice,
A
I'm sold! on 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
G
An' I'm about to bid my heart good-bye!
