John Michael Montgomery - Sold (The Grundy County Auction Incident) Lyrics

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 goodbye

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
'Cause 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
Well, I'm about to bid my heart goodbye

Yeah, we found love on the auction block
And I hauled her heart away
Now we still love to laugh about
The way we met that day

When 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
And 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 goodbye
